This is not that easy! They all sound a bit odd. I �d go for No.2, but I would prefer, in the case of repeated action, �she used to... � A better rendition is �She used to go walking on the moors, or she would drive to her parents �. �  Parents � meaning to their house.

I agree with cunliffe, they just don�t sound right,
 
She went walking on the moors, and then drove to see her parents.
 
She either went walking on the moors or drove to see her parents.
 
Sorry, I�m still confused,

Agree with above posters.

Without context none of them are correct.
