Geography

Chebulinsky District is about 40 km northeast of the City of Kemerovo, in the Chebuly Basin, for which the district is named. It is located just to the west of the Kuznetsk Alatau mountains. The Kiya River flows down from the mountains on its way north through the eastern border of the district. The district is known as the discovery site of many early Cretaceous dinosaur skeletons, including Psittacosaurus sibiricus. The area also features a wetland complex important to rare birds ("Shestakovo Swamp"), two extinct volcanos, and over 50 Paleolithic to Middle Aged archaeological sites.

Vegetation in the area is steppe and mountain forest-steppe. The forested areas are scattered. The district is about 100 km long, oriented towards the northeast. The road from Kemerovo to Krasnoyarsk in the east runs through the northern edge of the District. Subdivisions of the district include 1 urban area, and 7 rural settlements.[4]

Chebulinsky District borders with Mariinsky District to the north, Tisulsky District in the east and south, and with Kemerovsky District to the west.
