Asschat is a hamlet in the municipality Leusden, in the Dutch province of Utrecht.
The hamlet is separated from the village of Leusden in the west by the Valleikanaal canal, and it borders the hamlet Snorrenhoef in the east. The name Asschat (1696) derives from af-schede, afscheiding: partition, indicating an old border.[1]
The family Scholten van Aschat is named after the hamlet.
