Kluang is located in the centre of Johor. As it is located in the centre of the state, most major urban areas in Johor state are within 90 minutes drive time distance.

Kluang town lies in an area of undulating hills. The highest point is Gunung Lambak, a 510m tall mountain and one of the southernmost mountains in the Malaysian main range which lies not far from the town. In the western part of the district lies the Gunung Belumut Recreational Forest.

Kluang is landlocked and has no seafront. The Mengkibol River runs through the centre of the town while the Melantai River runs through the western part and the Sembrong River runs through the eastern part.

Urban sprawl in Kluang over the last three decades from the 1970s to 2000 has seen Kluang expand in a horizontal fashion, roughly along the major roads leading west to east. The town centre itself has more than tripled in size in terms of the number and land area occupied by commercial and retail buildings in that time. Many acres of rubber and oil palm plantations have been re-developed into housing estates.
