Schnackenburg is an idyllic little town (the smallest and most easterly town in Lower Saxony) lying at the mouth of the River Aland and the Elbe. Unfortunately, there are no shops / supermarkets in Schnackenburg, the nearest supermarket is in Gartow, about 10km away. A visit to the borderland museum is recommended (Schnackenburg was a small border town in GDR times and bordered on the GDR to the north (over the Elbe) and to the east (land border).
Nowadays (since the fall of the Wall) there is also an Elbe ferry (for cars, bicycles and pedestrians) that can be used to cross over to the village of Lütkenwisch (Brandenburg). The small harbor is also pretty, with a wooden observation tower on the north-eastern edge, from which you can enjoy a great view of the Elbe and the mostly flat landscape in the area. A very nice area for cycling, in addition to the Elberadweg there are several other interesting cycling routes.

I liked the small but really nice place. I often ride in the Hamburg area, Schnackenburg reminds me a little of that, but I can always keep up. Not just because of the ferry, a visit is really worth it!
