La Drava (Drau in tedesco e friulano, Dráva in ungherese, Drava in sloveno e croato) è un affluente del Danubio, che nasce nel comune di San Candido (nelle vicinanze della sella di Dobbiaco, spartiacque tra il bacino del Mar Adriatico e quello del Mar Nero) ai piedi della Cima Nove (nella cosiddetta "Foresta delle canne"), nel parco naturale Tre Cime. Con i suoi 749 chilometri dalla sorgente alla confluenza col Danubio, è il più lungo tra i fiumi che scorrono, anche in parte, in Italia. Il nome è attestato anche da scrittori dell'epoca romana come Plinio (Draus), Sesto Rufo (Dravus) e Strabone (Drabo).
