This is the view from the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain – 1282 feet. The hike up to the top gets quite steep, but the trail has been improved to include some steps and even railings at some points. From this summit you can see the Monocacy Valley stretching out beneath the mountain.
During the Cival War, the Confederate and Union troops both at times used the view from this summit as a lookout for advancing troops through the Monocacy valley.
