No, you cannot walk from Disney's Riviera Resort to Disney's Hollywood Studios, as there are no continuous pedestrian pathways and the route is separated by busy multi-lane roads and dense woodlands. While the resort is geographically close to both Epcot and Hollywood Studios, it was designed specifically around the Disney Skyliner transportation system. To get to Hollywood Studios, you simply board the Skyliner at the Riviera's dedicated station; it is a scenic, approximately 10-15 minute "flight" that takes you directly to the park's front entrance. If the Skyliner is closed due to high winds or lightning, Disney provides complimentary bus service as a backup. While you can walk from the Riviera to the nearby Caribbean Beach Resort to explore their dining options, any attempt to walk to a theme park would be unsafe and is not permitted by Disney Security. The lack of a walking path is often cited as the only minor drawback of this otherwise "ultra-convenient" resort, but the efficiency of the Skyliner—which arrives every few seconds—generally makes the lack of a footpath a non-issue for most guests staying at this Mediterranean-themed DVC property.
