thumb|240px|Memorial at the site of the former inner German border Eckertal is a hamlet of about 160 inhabitants in Bad Harzburg in Lower Saxony, Germany.

== Location == The settlement is situated just north of the Harz mountain range at the entrance of the densely forested Ecker valley, about downstream of the Ecker Dam. Located on the rim of the Bad Harzburg municipal area, about east of the town centre, its direct neighbour is the village of Stapelburg, part of the Ilsenburg municipality in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. The parish is part of the Harz Nature Park; from here, the protected area of the Harz National Park stretches up to the Brocken massif in the south.
