Brechen lies in the southeastern part of the Limburg Basin between the Taunus and the Westerwald. The sparsely wooded land of loess hills is crossed here from southeast to northwest by the Emsbach, which is fed near Niederbrechen by the Wörsbach and drains the area down to the Lahn. Together with the Idsteiner Senke, which joins it in the south, this patch of countryside is customarily known as the Goldener Grund, a reference to the favourable climate and the fruitful earth.
