Aubigny-la-Ronce is located some 18 km south-west of Beaune and some 20 km east by north-east of Autun. The western border of the commune is the border between the departments of Côte-d'Or and Saône-et-Loire. Access to the commune is by the D33 road from Molinot in the north passing south down the eastern side of the commune and continuing to Nolay in the south. Access to the village is by the D33D road which branches west off the D33 in the commune, passes through the village, and continues west. Apart from the village there are the hamlets of Lavault in the north-west and La Chassagne in the south-west. Almost half of the commune is forested in the north-west with the rest farmland.[3]
The Petit Drée flows from the north forming much of the north-western border and continuing south-west to join the Drée at Epinac. The Ruisseau de Roncevaux rises in the east of the commune and flows north-west forming part of the northern border before joining the Petit Drée on the commune border.[3]
