Sleeping in a motorhome – Lake Maggiore: what applies?
Official stopovers, campsites and farms that take motorhomes are open to you. For car parks and community spots, the rule of the country or region applies – along the shore, these:
Italy · 46 spots Tolerated
Under Art. 185 of the Highway Code, parking a motorhome is not camping as long as it rests only on its wheels, discharges nothing and does not take excessive space. Municipalities may restrict parking.

Canton of Ticino · 10 spots Forbidden
Where's a good place to stop in Ticino? On approved camping areas. The Ticino camping law allows camping only there (Art. 2 para. 1); camping also includes temporarily stopping and staying overnight in a motorhome away from one's own home (Art. 3). Pitching a tent as a bivouac in the mountains is exempt (Art. 2 para. 2).
