Mirabel is a commune located in the Ardèche department (Massif central, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France).
The Auzon river takes its source not far from the municipal territory on the Coiron plateau near the neighboring village of Freyssenet, then borders it. The Auzon receives various streams before flowing into the Ardèche (left bank) at Vogüé.
