Soule, Historical province in Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France
Located at the foothills of the Pyrenees, Soule extends across 785 square kilometers of valleys, forests, and mountain ranges near the French-Spanish border.
The territory became part of the English administration in 1261 when the last viscount transferred control to Edward I after extended regional conflicts.
The province maintains traditional pastoralism practices where shepherds guide their flocks through seasonal migrations between mountain pastures and lower valleys.
Visitors can explore the Iraty forest, trek to the Pic d'Orhy summit at 2017 meters, or observe migratory birds at Organbidexka Pass.
The region operates under the Syndicat of Soule system, where local communities collectively manage resources instead of state administration.
