The physical geography of the district was not the same and was divided into three landscape zones: plains, piedmont (foothills), mountains.
Two major rivers that flow through the area are Bystrytsias of Solotvyn and Nadvirna.
In the middle of the Carpathian Gorgany was located a botanic reserve "Skete of Manyava" known as a local arboretum which contains selection of Larix decidua.
Near the reserve is located over 20 m (66 ft) tall waterfall, a local Landmark of Nature.
The districts infrastructure was poorly developed, however there were several highway routes passing through it.
There is a district newspaper "Voice of People" (Slovo Narodu) and one radio station "Source" (Dzherelo).
