Motorway rest area, calm nights
10 Via Cantonale, 6743, Giornico
Been here?
Motorway rest area with car and truck parking; motorhomes can fit by putting front wheels on the grass. Picnic tables, bins, toilets and a non-potable water fountain are available, plus a river accessible through a fence gate. Nights are generally calm though cars and trucks pass through, some early risers around 5-6AM. A noise barrier separates the area from the road. Good for a short break or overnight stop.

Good for a night. Cars coming and going as expected. Many filled up in the early hours 5-6AM. Many trucks parked on opposite side. Left in the night. Bathrooms reeked. Don't know how often they are cleaned. Trash cans. Picnic tables. Water (non potable) at fountain by bathrooms. Motorhomes and cars with trailers parked using multiple spots. At least two electric car charging points.
Great for sleeping. There are picnic tables where you could also cook, and it was pleasantly cool under the trees the next morning. The night was generally quite quiet, with only one or two cars.
Was okay for a night; many people camped here, from trailers to rooftop pop-up campers. Lots of trucks pass through because the truck parking area is monitored, so many trucks simply drive through. This makes it a bit noisy.
Good for a break. There are plenty of rubbish bins, benches with tables, and toilets. The parking area is separated from the road by a noise barrier.
