Geography
Argein is located some 12 km south-west of Saint-Girons just a kilometre west of Audressein.

Apart from the village there is also the hamlet of Viellot. The centre of the commune is the valley of the Bouigane oriented east–west where the village lies. In the valley there is some farmland however the rugged north and south of the commune is heavily forested.[2]
