Foot is always right, at some point it may turn into hiking, also dependent on what you carry, where it happens, and how you feel about it. Personal preference/country/region largely determine how you call it. For all practical purposes, highway=foot and highway=hiking are the same. If a renderer or datauser wants to be more specific, better to consider specific attributes of the relation(s) and the ways it uses, to determine how to render/categorize/filter the routes.
