Pisogne camper area challenged over flood risk and safety concerns
Original source: Montagne & Paesi

Environmental groups Legambiente Basso Sebino and Valle Camonica, Italia Nostra Valle Camonica, and LIPU Bergamo and Brescia have formally challenged the municipality of Pisogne over the planned camper area in the Nistoi locality. They demand suspension of the authorization process and a full review, citing flood risk, safety concerns, road access issues, and soil quality. The groups call for independent verification of hydraulic hazards, including the potential for vehicles to be swept away by water, and an assessment of the evacuation plan, which relies on a road with a bottleneck and a one-way bridge. Concerns also include possible steel slag in the soil. As an alternative, they propose turning the area into a public park or reforested green zone.

According to a survey by Assocamp, conducted among 52 dealers, 57.7% of buyers prefer motorhomes to hotels and tourist villages, and 38.5% are willing to give up second homes.
