Camping and spending the night outdoors is neither possible nor permitted in the entire municipal area — with the exception of the two official campsites "Piccolo Paradiso" in Avegno and "Bellariva TCS" in Gordevio.

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

Art. 1 der Ordinanza verbietet das Lagern «con sacco a pelo, tenda, roulotte, motorhomes-camper e simili» — der Schlafsack ist ausdrücklich genannt, das Verbot erfasst also auch das Biwak ohne Zelt. Verstösse kosten 200 bis 500 Franken. Auf begründetes Gesuch, mindestens zehn Tage im Voraus, kann der Gemeindevorstand ausnahmsweise Campieren ausserhalb der Zonen bewilligen; dafür erhebt er bis zu 50 Franken je Zeltplatz.

Article 1 of the Ordinanza prohibits camping "con sacco a pelo, tenda, roulotte, motorhomes-camper e simili" — the sleeping bag is expressly mentioned, so the ban also covers bivouacs without a tent. Violations cost 200 to 500 francs. Upon reasoned request, at least ten days in advance, the municipal board can exceptionally approve camping outside the zones; for this it charges up to 50 francs per campsite.
