A map of Hyul Island.

Hyul is an island located to the far west of Alola near the equator, halfway between it and the Kanto region, and the main setting of the Breath of the Wild miniarc.

Geography

Hyul is a predominantly tropical island due to being close to the equator, though the Vali Mountains are a truly alpine environment. It is separated into six regions, the aforementioned mountains, the Joyous Forest, Hyul Flatlands, Dominion Forest Peaks, Oron Mountain, and the Ger Desert. Its centerpiece is an unnamed lake at the center of the island that contains Jester's Castle. The island is surrounded by a thick fog and emits a EM field that protects it from both aerial and sea-based surveillance.

History

The Hyul Civilization came into being thousands of years before the events of the arc, and flourished before coming to ruins at the hands of Jester.
