Start your Friday on the right foot with an invigorating one-hour hike through Tyler’s gardens and into the wilder natural areas beyond the deer exclusion fence. Designed as a moderate cardio workout, we’ll cover about 2½ to 3 miles at a fast pace—but don’t worry, we’ll also take time to pause for those unexpected moments nature has in store.

• Please arrive on time.
