backpacking stove

Portable camping cooker

A backpacking stove is a small, lightweight portable cooking device designed for outdoor use.

Unlike car-camping stoves, backpacking stoves prioritize minimal weight and pack size for hikers carrying all their gear.

Most run on canister fuel, liquid fuel, or alcohol, though some burn wood: We boiled water for coffee on the backpacking stove.
