The cone-shaped pinnacle of Sugar Loaf (596m) is a 9-mile return trip from the centre of Abergavenny via heath, woodland and the superb viewpoint of Mynydd Llanwenarth. You can cheat by driving to a car park about halfway up on Mynydd Llanwenarth; from here it's a 4-mile round trip. Head west on the A40, and at the edge of town turn right for Sugarloaf Vineyards, then go left at the next two junctions.
