The Luy is a left tributary of the Adour, in the Landes, in the Southwest of France. It is 154.2km (95.8miles) long, including its right source river Luy de France.
The Luy is the union of two neighboring rivers, the Luy de Béarn, which is 77km (48miles) long, in the south, and the Luy de France, the main course. Both rise in Béarn, at the base of the plateau of Ger, east of Pau.
They flow north-west through the Chalosse region and join below the castle of Gaujacq. The Luy flows into the Adour downstream from Tercis-les-Bains (south of Dax).
