Orkan Fuel Station Selfoss
This large Orkan station sits at the junction where Route 1 meets the highland access roads, making it the last major fuel stop before entering the interior. Full services include diesel, petrol, propane exchanges, and a well-stocked convenience store with camping supplies, maps, and basic provisions. Large forecourt easily handles overland rigs with trailers, and 24-hour fuel availability via credit card pumps.
Located at the southern edge of Selfoss on Route 1, about 60km from Reykjavík. The store carries detailed highland maps, emergency food supplies, and basic camping gear often forgotten by overlanders. Open daily with extended hours in summer, making it ideal for last-minute preparations before heading up F208 or F26.
