The village lies approximately 18 kilometres (11 mi) east of Radymno, 29 km (18 mi) east of Jarosław, and 77 km (48 mi) east of the regional capital Rzeszów.[1]
Before World War II the settlement was a farmstead in Gnojnice which were a suburb of nearby Krakowiec.
The Korczowa-Krakovets road border crossing with Ukraine is located nearby. As Poland became part of the Schengen Area on 21 December 2007, this border crossing is a Schengen external border. The European route E40 crosses the border here. The eastern terminus of Poland's A4 motorway and National Road 94 are located at Korczowa.
