The Naab (Czech: Nába) is a river in Bavaria, Germany.

This 97.5 kilometer long river is a left tributary of the Danube. Its average discharge at the mouth is 49 m/s (1,700 cu ft/s).

The Naab is formed by the confluence of the Waldnaab and the Haidenaab in Luhe-Wildenau, south of Weiden in der Oberpfalz. It flows generally south, through the towns Nabburg, Schwandorf and Burglengenfeld. It flows into the Danube near Regensburg.
