Geography
[edit | edit source]Autreppes is located some 35 km east by northeast of Saint-Quentin and 15 km west of Hirson. It can be accessed by the D31 road running from Saint-Algis in the west through the heart of the commune and the village and continuing east to Etreaupont. There are also many country roads covering the commune and accessing it from all directions. The commune consists entirely of farmland.[2]
The Oise river traverses the northern part of the commune from east to west. Only one stream flows into it from the north in the commune.[2]
