Fire Restriction in EffectCampfires are only permitted in designated Parks Canada metal fire rings or boxes Designated fire pits include metal fire rings, metal fire boxes, and cook stoves within cooking shelters. Designated fire pits do not include creating your own ring using rocks. At no time is it permitted to use a rock ring in place of these designated metal fire pits. Random fires are never allowed. Additional campfire information can be found here: https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/pn-np/ab/banff/nature/conservation/feu-fire/miseajour-update How to safely enjoy a campfire in a national park: 1. Keep campfires small and only in designated fire rings or boxes. 2. Never leave your campfire unattended. 3. Completely extinguish campfires with water. Soak it, stir it, and soak it again until it is cool to the touch before leaving it. While we cannot avoid naturally occurring wildfires (ex: lightning strikes), we can avoid human-caused fires. Please do your part to keep our communities and first responders safe by not lighting illegal campfires. If you see any wildfires, illegal campfires, or suspicious smoke, please report to Banff Emergency Dispatch: 403-762-4506.
