Romkerhall is a charming ensemble of a small castle-like building and a cascading waterfall set in the narrow Oker valley, about 10 kilometers south of Goslar. The building, built in the 19th century in a romantic Tudor style, was originally a hunting lodge and later a hotel. Today it houses a restaurant and a hotel, but the main draw is the waterfall that plunges over a rocky ledge beside the structure. The waterfall is especially impressive after heavy rain or snowmelt, and the surrounding forest adds to the fairy-tale atmosphere. Visitors can view the waterfall from a small bridge or from the restaurant's terrace. The site is a popular stop for cyclists and hikers along the Oker valley, and it's a favorite photo spot. The area also offers short walking paths along the river.
