Itinerary description

Both the ascent, from the side of Ancient Thera, and the descent, with views of Pyrgos and the caldera, finally of Emporio and its bell tower, are beautiful and panoramic.
It is recommended to go up early in the morning to avoid the heat. For breakfast there is a cafe open early near the church of Perissa (waypoint).
If open, visit both the monastery at the top (Profitis Elias) and the little church of Santa Caterina, at the bottom of the descent towards Emporio.

Bella e panoramica sia la salita, dal lato di Ancient Thera, sia la discesa, con viste su Pyrgos e sulla caldera, infine su Emporio e il suo campanile.
Si raccomanda di salire presto la mattina, per evitare la calura. Per la colazione si trova un bar aperto presto vicino alla chiesa di Perissa (waypoint). Visitare, se aperti, sia il monastero in vetta (Profitis Elias), sia la chiesetta di Santa Caterina, al fondo della discesa verso Emporio.
