Lake Salda
Crater lake in Turkey
About Lake Salda
Lake Salda is a mid-size crater lake in southwestern Turkey, within the boundaries of Yeşilova district of Burdur Province. It lies at a distance of about 50 km (31 mi) to the west from the province seat Burdur. Lake Salda is often included in the Turkish Lakes Region that extends across inner western to southern Anatolia, especially Isparta Province and Afyonkarahisar Province, although Lake Salda is geographically separate from the larger lakes, which are more to the east and, being a crater lake, is morphologically different from these tectonic lakes. The lake area covers 4,370 ha (16.9 sq mi), and its depth reaches 196 m (643 ft), making it one of the deepest lakes in Turkey.
