The Breccaschlund is a karstic plain with primeval forest, located above the lake Schwarzsee, in the Swiss Canton of Fribourg.[1]

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.
