The walk starts at the impressive Town Hall which was once the Market House, town gaol and fire station. It now houses the Town Museum. The walk takes you past buildings like the Shambles, or meat market, the old police house and the War Memorial erected to the memory of the dead of two world wars. The beautiful church 'All Saints of Marazion' is opposite, on a site of archaeological interest.

A spur shop is open in the Church during the summer months. The booklet gives much detailed information concerning many notable properties between the Church and the next imposing building, the Methodist Church.

The walk continues around the rear of Marazion affording many vantage points from which to view the bay from Cudden to Mousehole. A short distance downhill will bring you back to the main street and past more viewing and resting points such as the Maypole Gardens and the Gwelva.

A few yards farther the walk ends where it began at the Town Hall.
