Additional Information

The Little Si Trail is a popular hiking trail in North Bend, Washington, located in the western foothills of the Cascade Range. Companion piece to neighbor and big brother Mount Si, the small rocky bluff known as Little Si is accessed via a moderately graded trail located in the hike-rich North Bend area. Little Si is an important site in the Snoqualmie Tribe’s oral history of the Snoqualmie Valley. This hike offers a moderate challenge with beautiful scenery, making it a favorite for locals and visitors alike. A popular destination for both hikers and rock climbers, the moderately difficult 2.1-mile trail climbs 1,200 feet and offers great views of the Snoqualmie Valley, Mount Si, Rattlesnake Mountain, and the surrounding peaks.

This is a relatively new trail built in 1985. Due to the high numbers of hikers that use this trail annually, regular trail maintenance is needed. Greenway volunteers have contributed thousands of hours to bring this trail up to more sustainable standards, including building rock turnpikes and steps, repairing drainage, and replacing signs.
