Been here?
Large, mostly level free parking area in a natural mountain setting, with many spaces and several hiking routes nearby. There is substantial traffic during the day but little or none at night, when stays have been quiet. The camper area is no longer active, there are no services, and the Google Maps route is vehicle-prohibited.

Large area with plenty of space for motorhomes, starting point for several hikes. No traffic at night or in the evening, but a lot during the day. We were not disturbed at night.
Always a very beautiful place, but unfortunately the motorhome area is no longer operating. Until 2016 it was a ski resort, but lack of snow and poor decisions brought an end to winter tourism. Now only summer walks and very good restaurants remain.
Quiet and very spacious. More or less level if you look for a suitable spot.
We were there on April 5: a wonderful day with still plenty of snow. Large free parking area, no services. The view is spectacular. I recommend it to anyone who loves nature. Starting point for several walks, including to mountain refuges.
The route suggested by Google Maps is closed to vehicles. Our Italian is not particularly good, but the road sign clearly indicated this. What a shame; we had been looking forward to this place. According to Google, the 30-kilometer journey would also have taken us an hour and fifteen minutes.
Wonderful area in nature and absolutely peaceful, where I spent two serene days and two nights. Only gray-water disposal and water refilling. Beautiful mountain walks nearby.
Quiet, peaceful parking area immersed in nature. The road to get there is accessible.
