Geography
Alboussière is located some 10 km west of Valence and 10 km east of Lamastre. It can be accessed by the winding D533 road from Valence which passes through the village and continues west to Saint-Barthélemy-Grozon. The D14 road from Vernoux-en-Vivarais in the south also passes through the commune to join the D533 just north of the commune. The commune is also covered with a network of small roads. There are nine other hamlets in the commune other than the village. These are: Aubert, Blanc, Les Chatanelles, La Chalaye, Bleizac, Le Mas, Le Vivier, Ponsoye, and Fialaix.[4]
There are numerous streams throughout the commune. The Ruisseau de Jergne forms most of the southern border and the Duzon forms much of the eastern boundary with large numbers of unnamed streams joining them.[4]
