Kamianets-Podilskyi Raion, Administrative district in western Khmelnytskyi Oblast, Ukraine.
Kamianets-Podilskyi Raion is an administrative district occupying the southern portion of Khmelnytskyi Oblast and neighboring the territories of Ternopil and Chernivtsi. The landscape includes both urban centers and extensive countryside with forests, farmland, and river valleys.
The district took its present form through an administrative reorganization that consolidated several adjacent areas into a single entity. This restructuring created a more unified administrative framework for the region.
The region brings together urban and rural communities where traditional practices and local customs shape everyday life. Residents maintain heritage crafts and regional food traditions that remain visible in local markets and village celebrations.
The area is accessible through main roads that connect its towns and villages, though some rural sections may have limited infrastructure. Visitors should plan ahead when exploring remote communities, as public transport options vary across different parts of the district.
Several major rivers including the Dniester and Smotrych flow through the territory and have carved dramatic gorges and canyons into the landscape. These natural formations create distinctive geological features that shape the region's character.
