Northwest of the Buchschachtelberg lies the Kleiner Kranichsee.

In winter a cross-country skiing trail runs past the Buchschachtelberg and via the Scheffelsberg from Henneberg towards the border. In clear visibility there is a good view from the Buchschachtelberg of the Saxon-Bohemian upper Ore Mountains.

West of the mountain runs the Buchschachtelgraben stream, on Czech territory.
