In Elden Ring, Braziers are essentially Stone Pillars that you can light up. While lighting just one won't have any effect, lighting all the Braziers in a specific area can unlock a hidden area. This secret area features its own unique boss, different from the other bosses in the game. The sequence in which you light the Braziers is not important, the key is to light them all.
Some of the Braziers may be hard to find. To assist you, the guide below provides the precise locations of all the Braziers and what happens when you light them.

When you visit the Siofra River for the first time, you will notice Stone Braziers scattered in different locations. Although it may seem confusing at first, lighting all of them will unlock something special. To begin, make your way to the Siofra River by heading southeast of the Mistwood Outskirts Site of Grace in Limgrave. Once you reach the Siofra River Bank Site of Grace, you can start searching for all the Braziers in the area.
Head east from the Site of Grace to find the first Brazier. Then, continue northwest until you reach the second Brazier, guarded by Ancestral Followers. You can choose to fight them or simply light the Brazier and go east, taking the first left path. Further east, you will spot a small island with the third Brazier. There are no enemies here, so feel free to interact with the Brazier.

Head southeast from the third Brazier and follow the path to reach another Stone Brazier at the top of the hill. It is guarded by a few Ancestral Followers. Next, head north towards the Worshippers' Woods Site of Grace near the two Balls of Lightning. Light the flame and then head northwest to find another Brazier. Deal with a single enemy and interact with it.
After lighting the last Brazier, you have the option to visit the Site of Grace ahead or continue north. As you ride, you will come across two Ancestral Followers near the Brazier. Light it, then get back on Torrent and head north. Take a U-Turn to walk along the uphill path on the left. Heading southwest, you will reach the final Brazier with multiple enemies and Rats guarding it. Interact with the Brazier to receive a pop-up message informing you that Horned Remains now gathers power.

Behind the Fog Gate, you will encounter a boss that is considered relatively easy, however, the fight can be quite challenging especially early in the game.
