The peninsula encompasses the western Norwegian municipalities of Molde, Gjemnes, and Hustadvika.

[1] The peninsula is connected to the mainland by a 5-kilometre (3.1 mi) wide isthmus between the villages of Eidsvåg and Eidsøra in Molde Municipality.

The peninsula is flanked by a number of fjords: Langfjord and Romsdalsfjord to the south, Julsund (to the west), Hustadvika to the north, Kornstadfjord and Kvernesfjord to the north-east, and Tingvollfjorden and Sunndalsfjord to the east.

About 42,000 people live on the peninsula, with another 5,000 on the adjacent islands.
