'''Beaudéan''' ({{IPA|fr|bodeɑ̃}}; {{langx|oc|Beudian}}) is a [[Communes of France|commune]] in the [[Hautes-Pyrénées]] [[Departments of France|department]] in the [[Occitania (administrative region)|Occitanie]] region of south-western [[France]].<ref>[https://www.insee.fr/fr/metadonnees/geographie/commune/65078-beaudean INSEE commune file]</ref>
The inhabitants of the commune are known as ''Beaudéannais'' or ''Beaudéannaises''.<ref>[http://www.habitants.fr/hautes-pyrenees-65 Inhabitants of Hautes-Pyrénées] {{in lang|fr}}</ref>
==Geography==
[[File:Etedesvillages00020.jpg|thumb|The [[Lavoir]] (Public laundry)]]
Beaudean is located at the mouth of the Lesponne valley and the Campan valley in the inter-communal cooperative of Haute-Bigorre some 20&nbsp;km south by south-east of [[Tarbes]] and 5&nbsp;km south of [[Bagnères-de-Bigorre]]. Access to the commune is by the D935 road from [[Pouzac]] in the north which passes through the eastern tip of the commune and the village and continues south-east to [[Campan]]. The D29 branches off the D935 in the commune and goes along the length of the commune south-west to end in Chiroulet. Apart from the village there is the hamlet of Serris. The commune is mixed forest and farmland in the north and rugged forested mountains in the south.<ref name=Google/><ref name=Geo/>
The [[Adour]] river forms the north-eastern border of the commune as it flows north-west eventually joining the [[Atlantic Ocean]] at [[Boucau]]. The ''Adour de Lesponne'' flows from the south-west of the commune, forming much of the western border as it flows north-east, gathering tributaries such as the ''Ruisseau du Brouilh'' (which forms the southern border of the commune), the ''Ruisseau de Narbios'', the ''Hourquet'', and the ''Ruisseau de Hount Hérède'', to join the Adour at the eastern corner of the commune. The ''Serris'' river flows north-east through the commune and the village to  join the Adour. The ''Ruisseau de Binaros'' forms most of the eastern border of the commune as it flows north to join the ''Adour de Lesponne'' in the narrow "neck" of the commune.<ref name=Google/><ref name=Geo/>
