Description

This route is another successful road to trails conversion, which provides a more gentle climb than the Mt. Si Trail and which offers many of the same views. Work your way through second and younger growth forest, past a waterfall, and up to the summit of Mt. Teneriffe. The first 2 miles are gentle before the switchbacks which continue for the next 2 miles before following the ridgeline to the summit. Note that it is also possible to connect this trail to the Mt. Si Trail at about 3,600 ft elevation.

Good up hill. Sweaty. Make sure to bring enough water. Amazing view at top. Downhill kinda sucks
