campfire ring

Outdoor fire enclosure

A campfire ring is a circular barrier of stones or metal that contains a campfire, preventing it from spreading and concentrating its heat.

Most established campsites provide permanent metal rings for this purpose.

Building a ring from gathered rocks is a traditional camping skill: We arranged stones into a campfire ring before gathering kindling.
