Because Argobba is not part of any Zone in the Afar Region, it is considered a Special woreda, an administrative subdivision which is similar to an autonomous area. This woreda is named for the Argobba people, whose homeland lies in this district. Located on the eastern escarpment of the Ethiopian highlands, Argobba is bordered on the south, west and north by the Amhara Region, and on the east by Administrative Zone 3. Settlements in this woreda include Gachine. The average elevation in this woreda is 471 meters above sea level.
