cinque terra tickets for seniors (69+)

I am planning a visit to Cinque Terra in June, 2025.
Various tickets are available for hiking and trains, but they seen to say not available for those over 69.
Is travel free? or Not Permitted???

If travel is free, how to I get a timed ticket?

Thanks for any info.

Make sure you spell it Cinque Terre, for five lands. We drove there and parked for two days. We stayed at Hotel Porto Roca which was nice and had very good dining. We were never asked our ages. Perhaps a guided tour which isn’t needed asks for ages?

I just purchased our CT Treno MS Cards including the Via Dell' Amore supplement. The tickets for people 70 and over are listed at the bottom of the page for some reason. So you have to scroll down to find it. It is in Italian. Look for the word "anziano". And if you are staying in Riomaggiore or Manarola, and if your hotel qualifies as eco certified, you can get a Residence/Guest Card which entitle you to a discounted ticket and gives you greater access to VDA. You can enter from Manarola or Riomaggiore, and you can walk this path any time when it's open. Not just a specified 30-minute time block.

This is the link to my post in which I had a question about the residence/guest card in case you are staying in Manarola or Riomaggiore.
