Azzana is located approximately 13 km northeast of Casaglione and 10 km northwest of Bocognano. The commune is accessible via road D4, which runs from Salice in the west, passes through the centre of the commune and the village, and continues east to Rezza. Road D125 extends southwest from the village to Lopigna. In addition to the main village, there is a hamlet called Vignamajo to the south. The area is remote and rugged, characterized by snow-capped mountains in the north and south and extensive forests.^[3]

The river Liamone flows through the centre of the commune, south of the village, and continues west to the sea at Liamone. The Cruzzini, a tributary of the Liamone, also traverses the commune.
