It is situated in the highest part of Central Roztocze (over 350m AMSL) with the highest peak - Wapielnia near Ułów (385m AMSL). About 60 % of the area is covered with pine forests, fir woods, and groves of Carpathian beech and alder. Special protection is given to peat-bogs and rare vegetation of xerothermophilic plants. The most unique woodland areas are protected within St. Roch’s and ‘Zarośle’ nature reserves.
Interesting historic sights can be seen in Krasnobród and its vicinity e.g. the palace of the Leszczyński Family, a Baroque church with the Stations of the Cross, the Dominican monastery – the seat of the parish museum, and St. Roch’s Chapel built in the Zakopane style.
