The borough is located all at the south, in the part furthest away from the lowest forest, (106 Mr.) and most fertile.

The old ways recognizable are that of Ambriers (on Viviers) to Saulges, which crossed the borough, and that which, forming the southern limit, passes instead of the Large-way and also comes to approach the borough of the east in the west. The Way of Blandouet with Sanded, quoted in 1493, merges with the first of these ways. The old way of Holy-Suzanne with Saint-Denis-in Orques (6 km in south-east) crosses the north of the commune (D156 in Mayenne, then D49 in the Sarthe), connected to the borough by D210 or road of Fish ponds (7 km in north) in D957 Laval - Mans.
