This full-service N1 station sits at the heart of Egilsstaðir, East Iceland’s largest town and the gateway to multiple highland routes. Beyond fuel, it stocks groceries, camping supplies, maps, and hot food — crucial provisions before heading into the remote highlands on routes like F902 to Kverkfjöll or F910 toward Kárahnjúkar. The attached shop carries everything from tire repair kits to freeze-dried meals, and staff speak English.
Open daily with extended summer hours during highland season. Fuel prices here are typically lower than remote highland stations. This is your last reliable resupply before committing to the backcountry F-roads radiating north and west into the interior.
