Albepierre-Bredons is a French commune in the département of Cantal and Auvergne region of south-central France.
The inhabitants of the commune are known as Arapiroux.
Albepierre-Bredons is some 100 km south by south-west of Clermont-Ferrand and about 20 km north-west of Saint-Flour. It can be accessed by district road D39 coming south-west from Murat and continuing south-west by a circuitous route to Saint-Martin-sous-Vigouroux. District road D239 also starts from the town and heads north-east to join the D16 road north of Laveissenet.
