Parallel to the river on the northern edge of the floodplain is Russian federal highway A322 (Barnaul - Rubtsovsk).

The area measures 75 km (north-south), and 60 km (west-east); total area is 2,423 km2 (about 1.4% of Altai Krai Oblast). The administrative center is the town of Pospelhika.

The district is bordered on the north by Novichikhinsky District, on the east by Shipunovsky District, on the south by Kuryinsky District, and on the west by Rubtsovsky District.
