Alonsotegi is approximately 8 kilometres from the center of Bilbao. It is located in the valley of the Cadagua River, following Highway BI-636.
With a total area of 21 km2, its 2,907 inhabitants (INE 2019) are distributed across three main settlements: Alonsotegi (the capital), Iráuregui, and Arbuyo.

Several tributaries start in the mountains and flow down the slopes to the Cadagua. The capital is located at an altitude of 32 m. Barakaldo and Bilbao border on the north, Arrankudiaga and Güeñes on the south, Arrigorriaga and Bilbao on the east, and Güeñes on the west.
