The area was created by glaciers in the last ice age. Despite the usage as alpine pastures and despite the popularity among hikers, the area continues to be home to a variety of alpine flowers and alpine animals.

The Breccaschlund can be reached by car and public transport, and subsequently by the cable car Schwarzsee-Riggisalp.
