Schachtebich is known for its culinary specialities such as Thuringian Rostbratwurst, potato dishes and beer from local breweries.

The best outdoor activities can be found in spring or autumn hiking through the geopark or cycling along the river Leine. In winter you can enjoy skiing on the nearby mountains or ice skating on frozen lakes.

If it rains, we recommend a visit to the thermal springs in Bad Sachsa or a tour of the Teistungenburg Borderland Museum for an insight into Germany's history of division.

The most beautiful area in Schachtebich is undoubtedly the Eichsfeld-Hainich-Werratal Nature Park with its picturesque villages and unspoilt nature - perfect for relaxing and exploring.
