The Goldenke is a river of Lower Saxony, Germany.
It is a 4 km (2.5 mi) long tributary of the Sieber, north of the village of Sieber in the district of Göttingen. It rises at a height of 800 metres in the vicinity of the Hanskühnenburg on the ridge of Auf dem Acker, by the Goldenkerklippe crags. It then flows mainly in a southerly direction and empties into the River Sieber in the village of the same name.
