To book: Cinque Terre by train with the Card, from $80 per person. Check dates Tour details
The figures on this page come from official price lists: the Trekking Card e the Treno Card on the National Park website, the Cinque Terre fare of Trenitalia, the Via dell'Amore website, the Linea 02 price list of Navigazione Golfo dei Poeti and the parking rates in Monterosso. They are in euros and apply for the period indicated next to each table.
Let's start from the point that confuses almost everyone. The Park is open territory: you do not need to book to enter and the five villages are free to visit. You pay for what you use.
The short answer
There is no entry ticket to the Cinque Terre. The Trekking Card, needed for the Sentiero Verde Azzurro trail and the Via dell'Amore, costs 10.00 euro per day for adults (15.00 euro on high attendance days on the Park's calendar). From 14 March to 1 November 2026 a train trip costs 5, 8 or 10 euro according to the Trenitalia calendar band, the Treno MS Card from 22.00 to 35.00 euro per day; from 2 November the Treno MS Card has a single rate of 17.30 euro. The Linea 02 daily boat costs 42 euro, the car park in Monterosso 3 euro per hour.
How much does it cost to enter the Cinque Terre?
Nothing: there is no entry ticket. The villages are free to visit; the Cinque Terre Card is only needed for the paid stretches of the Sentiero Verde Azzurro trail and for the Via dell'Amore.
The Park states this in its FAQ: the Park is an open territory and no reservation is needed to enter it. The other trails are free. What you pay depends on how you get around.
Here are the five cost items, each with the starting price for adults. Details are in the following sections.

In addition to the trail, it includes buses within the villages, toilets at stations (€1 without the Card), the Park’s Wi-Fi and the Cinque Terre Walking Park guided tours from May to October, according to the schedule. Children under 4 do not pay if with an adult who has the Card. The Card for groups of up to 15 people costs €127.50 per day (€187.50 on high attendance days); CETS accommodation guests pay €5.00.
