1. At Tescos cross the main Brecon to Abergavenny road and walk up the road called Pen y pound. It is the road that runs to the right of the Abergavenny Baptist church. Continue walking along this road until you come to some lights. Keep to the right and start the long moderate climb up the road. The playing fields should be on your left. Continue walking up the old Hereford Road until you come to the end of the footpath. From here if you look slightly ahead and to the left you should see some stone steps that lead you up to the footpath. take the steps and climb the stile. Follow the field boundary and climb the stile at the other side of the field. Cross the land and climb the stile. You need to cross this field going up the hill in a straight line to reach the hidden stile at the far side. You may be able to spot a patch of worn ground to give you a guide on where to head. Climb this stile with care and turn right.

2. Follow the track until you come to a fork and take the right fork that drops down the hill. This will quickly take you to another fork in the track where you need to take the left folk that takes you back on to the climb up the hill. Stay on this green lane that runs up hill until you come to a garage directly facing you. As you face the garage there is a footpath that runs to the leftside of the garage. Take this path. Follow the path that continues the climb up the hill until you come to a junction of paths. To the right you should see a stile that leads down the hill. You want to turn left and take the path that continues the climb through the woods.

3. Follow the path until you join a small forestry track where you need to turn left. There is one place on the path that you may easily take the wrong path this will lead you to a track that you will need to turn right on and go up hill to join the track. You will know if you have taken the wrong path because when you come to turn left onto the forestry track if the track is going down hill then you've gone wrong and you need to turn right to go uphill to join the original path.

4. Follow the forestry track around the edge of the woodland until you come to a junction with a more established and defined track. Turn left and follow this track to the summit of Twyn-yr-allt. After spending some time taking in the views rejoin the forestry track that heads down the hill. Pretty soon this track become a path and the descent down Tywn-yr-allt is very steep so take care. You will cross over a number of other paths and tracks that intersect the one you are on but remain on the path that is heading down hill.At a couple of locations the path forks and you should take the left hand fork. At the end of the forestry track you come to a junction with an established footpath. Turn left and continue along this footpath passing through the swing-gate and style. The path briefly leads out on to a track, if you look down and to your right you will see footpath leading down to a stile. Cross this stile which is one that you crossed earlier on the way up. Cross straight down the field to the couple of stiles with the lane running between. Cross these stiles and retrace you earlier steps down the field boundary. This leads you out on to the road, cross the road and follow the road back down the hill until you reach the junction opposite Tescos'
