Geography edit

 
Baška and surrounding landscape

Frýdek-Místek District is the easternmost district of the Czech Republic, bordering Slovakia in the south and Poland in the east and north. Part of the historic Trans-Olza region lies within the district. The terrain is very fragmented. The majority of the territory is hilly or mountainous; only in the north it turns into a depression. The territory extends into seven geomorphological mesoregions: Moravian-Silesian Beskids (south and centre), Moravian-Silesian Foothills (northwest and northeast), Ostrava Basin (north), Silesian Beskids (east), Jablunkov Furrow (east), Jablunkov Intermontane (southeast), and Moravian Gate (small part in the north). The highest point of the district is the mountain of Lysá hora in Krásná, with an elevation of 1,324 m (4,344 ft). The lowest point of the district is the river bed of the Ostravice in Paskov and Řepiště at 245 m (804 ft).

Out of the total district area of 1,208.5 km2 (466.6 sq mi), agricultural land occupies 451.9 km2 (174.5 sq mi), forests occupy 617.5 km2 (238.4 sq mi), and water area occupies 23.7 km2 (9.2 sq mi). Forests cover 51.1% of the district's area.[1]

The territory is rich in rivers. The longest rivers are the Olza in the east and the Ostravice in the west. Other notable rivers are the Morávka and the Ondřejnice. The Stonávka and Lučina originate here, but soon leave the district. The largest bodies of water are the Šance and Žermanice reservoirs.

The southern part of the territory is protected as the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area.
