The Ilz (German:[ɪlt͡s]ⓘ) is a river running through the Bavarian Forest, Germany. It is a left tributary of the Danube. During its 40km (25mi) length (69km (43mi), including its main source river Große Ohe), it travels down a height difference of ~140m.

The Ilz is formed at the confluence of its source rivers Große Ohe and Kleine Ohe in Eberhardsreuth. In the city of Passau it finally enters the Danube. Another town on the Ilz is Fürsteneck.
