Hi Clara and welcome to the forum.
It must be really difficult for you given your condition to start to exercise again. I'm sure that you've spoken to your physio about key strengthening exercises that you can do that won't cause a flare up.
In terms of walking, how many miles can you walk at the moment?
I walk to and from work each day and that is about 4 miles a day (including a lunchtime jaunt to the shops), are you able to take a short walk before or after work? If so how far can you get?
I'd suggest building up your initial day to day mileage locally in case you find yourself out on the trail and struggling at the first attempt. Once you can do three or four miles day to day, then there are loads of short walks you can look at.
Also as Mynthdd2 points out, cycling is a good exercise, especially if you have the seat set up correctly for your height, so you are almost straightening your leg on each downstroke.
