The Wuhle is a small right-bank tributary of the Spree. It originates in a ground moraine in Brandenburg near Ahrensfelde and flows through the Berlin boroughs of Marzahn-Hellersdorf and Treptow-Köpenick before joining the Spree.
It is the primary in- and outflow of the Wuhlebecken.
The Wuhle is depicted in the coat of arms of Marzahn-Hellersdorf. Berlin Wuhletal station is also named after the Wuhle valley (German: Wuhletal), which is named after the Wuhle.
