Foix (Occitan: Fois) is the southernmost province of, bordered by to its east and north,  to its west and  to its south. It is a small province, nested among the Pyrenees and dominated by mountains, valleys, and large forests. It began its history as a medieval province, and today it is part of the Occitan cultural region.

Sparsely populated, Foix is a pleasant, lush territory, which bases its economy on agriculture, forestry, and tourism. Urban centres are few, and the largest one is the omonimous capital, which itself is little more than a countryside town.
