The Regge is a lowland river in the province of Overijssel in the Netherlands, flowing roughly 70 km from its source near Goor northward through Rijssen, Nijverdal, and Hellendoorn before joining the Vecht near Ommen. Historically a freely winding river and an important trade route connecting Twente to the Hanseatic cities of Zwolle and Kampen, the Regge was progressively canalized from 1848 onward, with meanders cut off and the channel deepened and widened. By 1935 this process had reduced its length from roughly 70 km to 50 km. In recent decades, an extensive restoration programme led by the Water Board Vechtstromen and the province of Overijssel has re-meandered approximately 50 km of the river, returning it to a more natural, winding course through the farming lowlands.

The river is characterized by a gentle, meandering character through open agricultural countryside. Its banks are lined with wildflowers, and the surrounding landscape includes meadows, thatched cottages, and old manor houses. The river supports a variety of birdlife including lapwings, redshanks, godwits, and moorhens. Fish ladders have been installed at weirs and locks along the river to allow fish migration.

Paddlers can navigate the Regge by kayak or Canadian canoe. Canoe rental is available at Holidaypark Mölke, which sits directly on the river and offers single-person kayaks, two-person kayaks, and three-person Canadian canoes. The route from Mölke passes through varied scenery and through villages and hamlets including Rijssen, which features a historic Pelmolen. The river's shallow, winding nature means paddlers should be aware of weirs and locks along the route. Historically, the river was shallow enough in summer that flat-bottomed boats sometimes had to be portaged around dry sections, which gives some indication of potential low-water conditions in dry periods.

The restored river is promoted as a recreational destination for paddlers, cyclists, and walkers, and the surrounding area includes farm camping options directly on the water's edge. The landscape is spacious and relatively quiet, making it a suitable destination for those seeking a relaxed paddling experience away from busier waterways.
