Could you please help it which one is more natural as below sentences？ 1. If you don't feel like walking up to your room 2. If you don't want to walk up to your room 1. We can make our way up ourselves. 2. We can go up ourselves.

Your first two examples are not sentences. They are subordinate clauses. They have neither a subject nor a verb (note: "walking" is not a verb): "If you don't feel like walking up to your room, you can take an elevator." (Subject = "you", verb = "take". The subordinate clauses #1 and #2 are equally good. I'm not sure what idea you want to convey. If you want to express that you have the *ability* to climb up on your own, then I would say "on our own" rather than "ourselves". If you want to express that you would rather not have any help, then I would say "We WILL make our way up on our own."
