The highest point of the district is the hill Kamenný vrch in Barchovice with an elevation of 456 m (1,496 ft), the lowest point is the river basin of the Elbe in Pňov-Předhradí at 188 m (617 ft).

From the total district area of 747.6 km2 (288.6 sq mi), agricultural land occupies 552.3 km2 (213.2 sq mi), forests occupy 94.9 km2 (36.6 sq mi), and water area occupies 17.3 km2 (6.7 sq mi). Forests cover 12.7% of the district's area.[1]

The most important river is the Elbe, however, the longest river within the territory is the Výrovka. Short section of the Klejnárka River before its confluence with the Elbe is also located in the district.
