It lies on the Pilica River, approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) west of Inowłódz, 9 km (6 mi) east of Tomaszów Mazowiecki, and 54 km (34 mi) south-east of the regional capital Łódź.[1] The village has a population of 400.

Spała was the site of the Central European Jamboree in 1935, and of the International Young Physicists' Tournament in 1995.

This region can be noted as the site of the Imperial Russian hunting lodge where, in 1912, Grigori Rasputin allegedly healed the tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich from a fatal hemorrhage.
