This is the solitary finest thing to do on Santorini-- as well as it's totally free! The sights are extraordinary. The hike takes somewhere between 2 and also 5 hrs depending upon your speed as well as how many pictures you quit to bring the method. Begin in Fira and relocate north with Firostefani and after that Imerovigli (this part of the course feels even more like a town pathway). From Imerovigli to Oia it's a greatly rural path, with just a few stores or dining establishments. The majority of people will certainly intend to put on a strong running footwear for the walk however I've absolutely seen people do it in flip flops. The path isn't entirely significant however it's relatively instinctive: remain on the course that complies with the side of the caldera and walk north (when in doubt remain to the left/west). Obviously, it's great to do the walk in the opposite direction but it really feels more natural (to me) to stroll north to Oia and also the island's pointer. As well as walking into Oia from capitals above is an incredible finish. If it's July or August I 'd extremely advise beginning prior to 8am.
