Riff, Bathing establishment in Bad Lausick, Germany.

The Riff is a spa and leisure pool complex on Am Riff, east of Bad Lausick's town centre. The pool building stands west of the street, the resort east of it, linked by an above-ground tunnel called the Bademantel-Gang. Inside are a 25-metre pool with a current channel, a 125-metre tyre slide and a 118-metre tube slide, both 12 metres high, plus a diving tower with 3- and 5-metre boards over a 4-metre-deep pool.

Saxony's economics minister Kajo Schommer, Grimma district administrator Gerhard Gey and Bad Lausick mayor Josef Eisenmann laid the foundation stone in March 1994. The Riff opened on 20 December 1995 after 15 months of construction, as the first modern leisure pool in Saxony after the end of the GDR. It replaced the renovation of the dilapidated open-air pool, cost 45 million DM, and 90 percent was funded by the Free State of Saxony.

The name Riff refers to a reef, and the complex is run entirely by the municipality of Bad Lausick, while the resort across the street involves private investors. Since 2006 a healing-water pool has been part of the baths, and drinking water is drawn from the "Aqua Vitales" fountain. The connected resort is reached through an above-ground passage nicknamed the "Bademantel-Gang" (bathrobe corridor).

Visitors can book sessions in advance and should check current conditions to plan the best time for their visit. Getting there is easy by public transit, as Bad Lausick train station is nearby.
