There are snails you can activate all around the zone to quickly move along the outside of the building. You must loot magic mud from the massive mudglops all over the zone to feed to the snails to activate them. Then just jump (spacebar) on top of the snail while it is stationary. (or... just walk up onto its head.)
Do not go in the water in this zone. You will become stuck and a giant hand will emerge and kill you.
