Korshage is the cape of the Danish Rørvig peninsula, which protrudes northeast into the Kattegat and belongs to the Odsherred peninsula . Both peninsulas are part of the Danish island of Zealand .

A little further south of the area belonging to the municipality of Odsherred , the next larger town is Rørvig . The coastline of Korshage is subject to constant change. While the north coast is receding and attempts are being made to stabilize the coastline, Korshage continues to grow to the east, towards Hundested .

The area around Korshage is characterized by a heather landscape and is under nature protection . Grazing preserves the character of the landscape. Seasonal migratory bird watching is possible near Korshage . However, there are extensive holiday home areas not far from the beach, which influence the natural character of the region.
