What this means

Campieren ist auf öffentlichem Grund nur an den von den Behörden bezeichneten Stellen erlaubt — anderswo also nicht.

Show machine translation

Camping on public property is only allowed in the places designated by the authorities — i.e. not elsewhere.

Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.

Zum Nachtlager ohne Zelt sagt die Bestimmung nichts. Der Artikel verwendet den Oberbegriff «Campieren», ohne Zelt und Fahrzeug einzeln zu nennen. Einen Weg zur Ausnahme kennt er nicht; zu privatem Grund trifft er keine Aussage.

Show machine translation

The provision says nothing about night camp without a tent. The article uses the generic term "camping" without naming the tent and vehicle individually. It does not know a way to make an exception; it makes no statement about private property.

Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.
