It covers an area of 18.46 square kilometres (7.13 sq mi), which includes the municipal districts of Malý Háj (Kleinhan) (449.3 ha) und Rudolice v Horách (Rudelsdorf) (665.5 ha). Together with Hora Svaté Kateriny proper (629.6 ha) and Svahová I (101.5 ha), these form the four basic settlements and cadastre districts in the town. The small settlement of Pachenkov (Pachenhäuser) is also part of the town.

Neighbouring communities are (clockwise from the north): Deutschneudorf in Saxony, Nová Ves v Horách, Bolebor, Kalek, and Brandov. The highest elevation in the community area is Eduardova skala (910 m a. s. l.) on the border to Bolebor community, followed by Kamenny vrch (842 m) near the border to Brandov community, and Ružový vrch at the eastern end of Hora Svaté Kateriny proper.
