The Souy is a river in France that runs in the Hautes-Pyrénées department in the Occitania region . It rises in the municipality of Ossun , generally drains north-east to north and flows into the Échez as a left tributary after 26 kilometers on the eastern outskirts of Siarrouy . The Souy already reaches the Échez valley in Oursbelille , but runs parallel for another five kilometers to its mouth. In this section the two rivers are already connected by an abundance of artificial watercourses.
