How to get the Cinque Terre Card
Since 2001 the Cinque Terre National Park has adopted a service card, the Cinque Terre Card and the Cinque Terre Card Treno MS, the latter being the result of an agreement with Trenitalia S.p.A. Le Cinque Terre Card aims to enable people to use the services supplied by the Cinque Terre National Park Authority, and it represents a kind of self-financing. The proceeds of the Cinque Terre Cards are mainly aimed at the upkeep and the recovery of the territory, and to allow the transport services within the territory as well.
The Card is on sale at the Cinque Terre Park Welcome Centres in all major train stations from La Spezia to Levanto.
How to use the Card
The Card bears the user’s full name and may not be used by others. Before using a card, the user’s name (or the head of the family’s name in case of family cards) must be written on the back. Cards must be shown to inspectors together with a valid identity document.
Cards must be stamped at Trenitalia’s stamping machines when taking the first train ride.
Children under 4 travel on the trains and use the Park services for free if accompanied by an adult in possession of a Card.
BE INFORMED THAT IN CASE OF ORANGE AND/OR RED WEATHER WARNING, THE SALE OF ALL SERVICE CARDS WILL BE SUSPENDED
