5. We did the clean-up activities at the Han River.

Yes. The first two sentences are correct.

A campfire is usually a small, controlled fire for cooking or warmth. A bonfire is much larger and is used to celebrate something.

Both 4 and 5 are right. Whether you use the singular or plural depends upon whether you have just one or more than one activity. However, usually clean-up activities at a river involves several activities.
