The Druance (French pronunciation: [dʁyɑ̃s]) is a river in northwestern France, flowing through the department of Calvados. It is 31.24 km long.[1] Its source is in Les Monts d'Aunay, and it flows into the river Noireau in the commune of Condé-sur-Noireau and through Suisse Normande.[2] It flows through three other communes, Terres de Druance, Périgny & Pontécoulant all of which are in the area known as Suisse Normande.[1][3]

The surrounding area of the river and its tributeries are a Natura 2000 conservation area, called Bassin de la Druance.[4]
