The Oker rapids near Hillerse are one of the most scenic and dynamic sections of the river between Braunschweig and its mouth in the Aller. Here, the Oker shows a face that one would hardly expect in the otherwise rather leisurely lowlands. Near Hillerse, the Oker overcomes a slight terrain step. The water gains speed, breaks on stones and gravel banks and begins to bubble.
