The free walk, beginning at the State House on Beacon Hill and ending at Long Wharf, spans one mile that covers Boston’s historic landmarks and skyscrapers.The Walk to the Sea consists of ten freestanding glass panels located at the eight spots throughout the city.

Beyond its informative panels, Walk to the Sea engages walkers with virtual tours of each stop with short video clips of historic information that can be accessed on their website, www.walktothesea.com.

Much of the ground the walk covers was at one point active harbor; using text along with contemporary and historic maps, photos, etchings, and paintings, the Walk to the Sea illustrates 400 years of Boston’s relationship with the sea.

The walk brings the past to life with stops at:
 Beacon Hill
 King’s Chapel,

 Old State House,
 Financial District,
 Custom House
