A French Phrase for Asking whether a campfire is allowed: "Peut-on faire un feu de camp ici ?"

"Peut-on faire un feu de camp ici ?" means "Can we make a campfire here?" and it's the basic French expression used for asking whether a campfire is allowed. It's very handy when talking about nature and outdoor trips. To answer, you can say something like "Non, c'est interdit dans la forêt." (No, it's forbidden in the forest). You can keep the conversation going by reacting with something like "D'accord, merci de nous avoir prévenus." (Okay, thank you for letting us know).
