Abergavenny is the nearest station, 0.7 mi (about 1 mi on foot), close enough to walk to from the train. From Abergavenny it's about 30 minutes to the summit, 1 in 6 on average. Pontypool & New Inn is next, 8.3 mi (about 11 to 12 mi on foot), and 4 stations are within 10 miles in all.
Ysgyryd Fach is a hill one mile east of Abergavenny in the county of Monmouthshire, south Wales. It is often referred to in English as Little Skirrid or sometimes as Skirrid Fach. Its summit height is just over 270 metres (890 ft). A conifer plantation extends over much of the hill including its summit; prior to felling of trees on the upper slopes in 2012 outward views were therefore restricted. The hill is considered to be one of the 'seven hills of Abergavenny'.
