Road-to-Trail Approach
A half-mile access trail switchbacks from the parking lot to a former logging road. The main route then climbs gradually through young forest and meadows, passing the separate Teneriffe Falls branch.
Roaring Creek & Mount Si Junctions
Beyond the Roaring Creek Trail intersection, the climb steepens for 2.7 miles. A Middle Fork viewpoint with a stone bench precedes a signed T-junction: the Mount Si connector goes left, while Teneriffe continues right.
Upper Trail & Summit
The summit is another 2.3 miles beyond that junction. About a mile into this section, the converted road ends and a narrower forest trail begins. The final summit step is a short rocky scramble, distinct from the broad lower tread.
Terrain Along the Route
Second- and third-growth forest covers much of the approach; the final summit section includes a short rocky scramble.

Driving Approach
Follow Mount Si Road about three miles from North Bend Way, passing Little Si and the main Mount Si lot. The dedicated Teneriffe trailhead is on the left, roughly half a mile beyond the main Si trailhead.
Parking & Gate

Teneriffe Main-Trail Reports
WTA's Teneriffe feed includes reports that may combine the summit, Teneriffe Falls, Mount Si connectors or Kamikaze. The main road-conversion route is longer than Kamikaze; the report's chosen approach matters.
