What this means
Vezia has no rules of its own. What is stated here is higher-level law — not a provision of this municipality.
Vezia verweist auf das kantonale Recht: Campieren nur auf bewilligten Plätzen, ausgenommen das Bergbiwak. Für dessen Auslegung nennt die Gemeinde das Merkblatt des Schweizer Alpen-Clubs — eine Nacht oberhalb der Waldgrenze, sofern keine gegenteiligen Vorschriften gelten.
Show machine translation
Vezia refers to cantonal law: camping only on approved sites, with the exception of the mountain bivouac. For its interpretation, the municipality cites the leaflet of the Swiss Alpine Club — one night above the tree line, unless otherwise stipulated.
Machine-translated, may be inaccurate — the original wording is authoritative.
Die Waldgrenze liegt auf der Alpensüdseite meist zwischen 1700 und 1900 Metern. Die Gemeinde weist darauf hin, dass das Schweizer Recht keine amtliche Biwakerlaubnis kennt, sondern nur Verbote — im Nationalpark, in eidgenössischen Jagdbanngebieten, in Wildruhezonen während der Schonzeit und in kantonalen Schutzgebieten.
Show machine translation
The tree line on the southern side of the Alps is usually between 1700 and 1900 metres. The municipality points out that Swiss law does not recognise an official bivouac permit, but only prohibitions – in the national park, in federal hunting ban areas, in wildlife rest zones during the closed season and in cantonal protected areas.
