What this means
Eine Nacht geht ohne Bewilligung. Erst ab der zweiten Nacht braucht das Campieren auf öffentlichem Grund oder ausserhalb des Siedlungsgebiets eine schriftliche Bewilligung des Gemeinderates.
Show machine translation
One night is possible without a permit. Only from the second night onwards does camping on public land or outside the settlement area require written permission from the municipal council.
Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.
§ 14 Abs. 1 setzt die Bewilligungspflicht ausdrücklich erst bei der zweiten Nacht an; der Bussenkatalog ahndet entsprechend nur das Campieren «ab der 2. Nacht». Zelte von Schul-, Pfadfinder- und anderen Jugendlagern sind bis zwei Wochen ausgenommen, sofern der Grundeigentümer zustimmt. Grünflächen dürfen ohne dessen ausdrückliche Einwilligung weder befahren noch beparkt werden.

Section 14 (1) expressly sets the permit requirement only at the second night; accordingly, the catalogue of fines only punishes camping "from the 2nd night". Tents of school, scout and other youth camps are exempt for up to two weeks, provided that the landowner agrees. Green spaces may not be driven on or parked without the landowner's express consent.

On bivouacking — sleeping without a tent, in a sleeping bag — the available source says nothing. This is neither a tacit permission nor a tacit ban: it is unclear, and the municipality's information decides. Which municipalities address bivouacking
