Karstic cave. Eyehole entrance located at the end of a notch in the cliff at the top of a very long talus slope. Entry requires an awkward climb up into a narrow rift that trends upwards to some boulder-fill.

Alternative Names: None recorded.

Notes: Name derived from the Old Norse word 'brekka', meaning slope/hillside.
