The walk takes someplace between 2 and 5 hours relying on your speed and also the amount of images you quit to bring the way. Begin in Fira and also relocate north through Firostefani and after that Imerovigli (this part of the course really feels more like a town walkway). From Imerovigli to Oia it's a greatly country path, with only a few shops or dining establishments.

The course isn't completely significant however it's relatively intuitive: stay on the path that adheres to the side of the caldera and stroll north (when doubtful keep to the left/west). Obviously, it's fine to do the stroll in the opposite direction yet it really feels much more all-natural (to me) to stroll north to Oia and also the island's idea.
