Geography

Barenton-sur-Serre is located some 35 km south-east of Saint-Quentin and 15 km north-east of Laon. National Route N2 passes through the commune from Froidmont-Cohartille in the north-east running south-west through the commune. Access to the village is by road D3060 running west from the N2 to the village then continuing north-west to road D12. There is also access to the village on a country road from Froidmont-Cohartille. There is quite a large area of forest north of the village and in a belt extending south-east of the village. The rest of the commune is all farmland.[2]

The Ru de Barentons flows from the south of the commune into the Souche river which flows from east to west through the commune then continues north-west to join the Serre river.[2]
