Iceland
Orkan Akureyri Highland Services
Fuel Station
This full-service Orkan station on Akureyri’s outskirts serves as the critical fuel and resupply point for overlanders heading into northern Iceland’s highland routes. Clean facilities, good selection of camping supplies, and reliable diesel. The attached convenience store stocks basic repair items, maps, and trail food. Busy with tour buses during summer but efficient service.
Located on Route 1 just before the F821 turnoff to Eyjafjarðardalur. Open 24 hours year-round. Credit cards accepted but carry cash for highland huts. Last reliable fuel before the interior — next stations are 100+ miles away.
