What this means

Basel-Landschaft kennt keine allgemeine kantonale Regelung zum Campieren oder Biwakieren. Eine Volltextsuche im gesamten schweizerischen Kantonsrecht über lexfind.ch (Begriffe «campieren», «kampieren», «biwakieren», «camping sauvage», «bivouaquer») findet ausserhalb von Obwalden keinen Erlass, der das Übernachten im Freien allgemein regelt. Über das Übernachten im Freien entscheidet in diesem Kanton deshalb die Gemeinde — meist im Polizeireglement. Was die Karte dazu weiss, steht bei der Gemeindefläche.

Show machine translation

Basel-Landschaft does not have a general cantonal regulation on camping or bivouacking. A full-text search of lexfind.ch (terms "camping", "camping", "bivouaking", "camping sauvage", "bivouaquer") in the entire Swiss cantonal law does not find any decree outside Obwalden that generally regulates overnight stays outdoors. In this canton, the municipality therefore decides on overnight stays outdoors - usually in the police regulations. What the map knows about this can be found in the municipal area.

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

Not yet looked up

These municipalities of the canton do not have their own entry yet. They are listed here anyway, because the answer “nothing is regulated at cantonal level for Basel-Landschaft, and nothing has been looked up for your municipality yet” is an answer — and because the map holds the contact of each municipality.
