What this means

Serravalle has no rules of its own. What is stated here is higher-level law — not a provision of this municipality.

Serravalle kennt keine eigene Regelung zum Übernachten im Freien; es gilt unmittelbar das kantonale Recht. Campieren ist damit nur auf bewilligten Plätzen erlaubt, ausgenommen das Biwak im Gebirge.

Show machine translation

Serravalle does not have its own regulation on overnight stays outdoors; cantonal law applies directly. Camping is therefore only permitted on approved sites, with the exception of bivouacs in the mountains.

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

Im Tessin gilt die kantonale Legge sui campeggi: Campieren nur auf bewilligten Plätzen, ausgenommen das Zelten zum Zweck des Biwakierens im Gebirge (Art. 2). Serravalle liegt im Bleniotal und reicht weit über die Waldgrenze — anders als in den Talgemeinden am See greift die Ausnahme hier tatsächlich.

Show machine translation

In Ticino, the cantonal Legge sui campeggi applies: camping only on approved sites, with the exception of camping for the purpose of bivouacking in the mountains (Art. 2). Serravalle is located in the Blenio Valley and extends far above the tree line — unlike in the valley communities by the lake, the exception actually applies here.

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