Hjortshøj station is a railway station serving the railway town and suburb of Hjortshøj north of Aarhus on the peninsula of Djursland in Jutland, Denmark.
The station is located on the Grenaa railway line between Aarhus and Grenaa. It opened in 1877 with the opening of the Aarhus-Ryomgård section of the railway line. The station was closed in 1969, but reopened in 1979. Since 2019, the station has been served by the Aarhus light rail system, a tram-train network combining tram lines in the city of Aarhus with operation on railway lines in the surrounding countryside.
