The Rega is a 168 km long river in the Polish West Pomeranian Voivodeship . It rises in the Pomeranian Lake District and flows into the Baltic Sea .

Rega begins in the Pomeranian Lake District between Świdwin ( Schivelbein ) and Złocieniec ( Falkenburg ). There is no agreement on the exact start of Rega. According to one perspective, it rises from the Resko Górne ( Ritzigsee ) near Nowe Resko ( Ritzig ) at a height of 146  m . According to another perspective, a stream that rises about 4 km further north near the village of Imienko ( Immenberg ) at an altitude of 177.5  m forms the beginning of the Rega. The official German map from 1936 of the Reichsamt für Landesaufnahme shows the name “Rega” for both tributaries, namely the name “Rega (lake graben)” for the inflow from the Ritzigsee and the name “Rega (quarry graben)” for the stream that rises near Immenberg ) ".

Rega's catchment area is 2,725  km² . It flows northwards past the towns of Świdwin ( Schivelbein ), Łobez ( Labes ), Resko ( rain forest ), Płoty ( Plathe ), Gryfice ( Greifenberg ) and Trzebiatów ( Treptow an der Rega ). The river is divided in the estuary area. The Alte Rega flows through the Resko Przymorskie ( Kamper See ) before it flows into the Baltic Sea at Dźwirzyno ( Kolberger Deep ) . The Neue Rega, an artificial arm of the river, flows into the Baltic Sea at Mrzeżyno ( Treptower Deep ).

Rega is dammed several times along its course. Small hydroelectric power plants are located at many dams to generate electricity. The largest tributary of the Rega is the Mołstowa ( Molstow ).
