Geography

[edit]

Arconville is located some 60 km east by south-east of Troyes and 36 km west by north-west of Chaumont. Access to the commune is by road D101 from Bergères in the west passing through the commune and the village and continuing east to join the D12 west of Longchamp-sur-Aujon. The D12 forms most of the southern border of the commune as it goes from Champignol-lez-Mondeville to Longchamp-sur-Aujon. The D70 road also passes south through the west of the commune from Baroville in the north to Champignol-lez-Mondeville in the south-west. The east of the commune is heavily forested with forests in the south-west and north-west as well. The rest of the commune is farmland.[3]
