The Nahe River is a river in Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland, Germany, a left tributary to the Rhine. It has also given name to the wine region Nahe situated around it.
The name Nahe is derived from the Latin word Nava, which is based upon the Celtic origin for the wild river. The Nahe separates the northern part of the Palatinate from the Hunsrück.
It rises in the area of Nohfelden (Saarland), flowing through Rhineland-Palatinate and joining the Rhine river in Bingen. Its length is 116 kilometres (72 mi). Towns along the Nahe include Idar-Oberstein, Kirn, Bad Kreuznach and Bingen.
