This annual event is designed as a self-guided walking tour of the historic properties and farmhouses scattered throughout the Tyler State Park grounds. 

Representatives from both the Newtown Historic Association and Tyler State Park will be at the boathouse area at 10 am to provide a general overview and answer questions. Participants are invited to join a 5-mile ranger-led bike tour immediately following the introduction. E-bikes are welcome as the park is very hilly. Participants are also welcome to tour on their own on bike or foot.

Anyone who preregisters with the Newtown Historic Association will receive an informative Tyler Park historical book. This limited-edition, 100-page book contains rare photographs and detailed descriptions of the many historic properties and farmhouses, including the construction of the Tyler mansion, and how they were acquired by the Tyler family in the early 1900s.
