Nearly the whole commune lies within the drainage basin of the river Wieprza and in the river basins of the rivers Studnica and Bystrzyca. The commune is rich in underground waters. The Kępice Commune does not have mineral deposits of high economic value. Common raw material deposits such as sand, gravel, clay and peat, occur here. Wildlife is the commune's most important natural asset: vast forest complexes with a great variety of habitats and thick undergrowth. The agricultural production space (ca. 30%, with 70% of the land having fertile and clean soils suitable for growing fruit and vegetables) is another asset.
