Show machine translation

Camping is prohibited in Chamoson in any form — the municipal police explicitly and individually mention mobile homes, tents, the bivouac and overnight stays outdoors. The ban applies to the entire municipal area. There are no designated places for motorhomes.

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

Der Artikel nennt das Biwakieren und das blosse Übernachten im Freien eigens — hier ist also auch das Nachtlager ohne Zelt erfasst, anders als in vielen Reglementen, die dazu schweigen.

Show machine translation

The article specifically mentions bivouacking and simply spending the night outdoors — so this also includes night camp without a tent, unlike many regulations that are silent about it.

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