The Wilde ( also called Wölfte in the upper reaches ) is a 17.1 kilometer long, southwest and orographically right tributary of the Eder , which runs in the urban area of Bad Wildungen in the district of Waldeck-Frankenberg , northern Hesse ( Germany ).

course

The Wölfte rises in the wooded mountains of the Kellerwald at a height of about 500  m on the western flank of the Wölftekopf ( 567.1  m above sea  level ), which is located west of Hundsdorf , a district of Bad Wildungen. From its source it runs through the Kellerwald-Edersee Nature Park in a north-easterly direction and a little north past Hundsdorf. The Urff rises about 600 m to the south , which initially flows parallel to the Wölfte and turns southeast from Hundsdorf.

North-east of Hundsdorf the Wölfte changes its course to the north and flows in the Eschelgrund into the district Albertshausen . From the confluence of the small Sillbach coming from the west , it is also called Wilde. To the south of the village of Albertshausen, the Wölfte / Wilde forms the border with Reinhardshausen and flows through this district as a Mühlengraben. In the further course it flows around the Homberg ( 518  m ) on its west, northwest and north flanks in a north-easterly direction. Then it flows eastwards to the Reitzenhagen district , where it flows out of the basement forest and at the same time flows into the mostly unwooded urbanization area of ​​Wildung. Then it squeezes between old wilderness in the northeast and the core town of Bad Wildungen in the southwest and, after crossing under the B 485 to the north, reaches the eastern Wildung district of Wega .

The confluence of the Wilde into the Eder is located immediately north of Wega at Eder kilometer 35.3, almost 9 kilometers below the Affolderner See . Opposite the Wilde confluence, which is about 180  m above sea level, is Wellen .
