The top of Mount Breskul has a dome shape: the northern slopes are quite steep with steep stone scree, the southeastern slopes are gentler, covered with various alpine and subalpine plants (grasses, flowers and shrubs - juniper and juniper).
To the west of Breskul there is a wide hollow formed in a glacial depression with several small and unstable lakes, the largest and most famous of which is Breskul Island.
