Ukleja is a river of Poland.[1] It is a left-bank tributary of the Rega River, originating from Lake Dłusko.[1] On its path it flows through Lakes Woświn, Mielno, and Okrzeja, connecting them.[1] After that it transitions into a gravel-bed lowland stream and then into a sandy-clay lowland river before it meets the Rega.[1] Just before it does so, the Sąpólna River, its largest tributary, joins it on its left bank.[1]
The most abundant fish species along the river are gudgeon (Gobio gobio L.), brown trout (Salmo trutta fario L.), bullhead (Cottus gobio L.), and spined loach (Cobitis taenia L.).[1]
A 2008 WIOŚ assessment rated its water quality as good.[1]
