Jandari Lake lies on the border between Georgia and Azerbaijan, on the Gardabani Plain in Kvemo Kartli, at an elevation of 292 metres above sea level, among the natural attractions of the region. The reservoir covers 10.6 square kilometres, with an average depth of 3.75 metres and a maximum of 7.2 metres. It's a reservoir rather than a natural lake, fed by the Mtkvari (Kura) River through the Gardabani irrigation system.
The shores are gently sloping and surrounded by semi-desert and steppe vegetation: Christ's thorn and bitter wormwood grow alongside patches of floodplain forest with aspen, willow and tamarisk. During migration season, large numbers of waterfowl gather on the lake, including pelicans and wild ducks, making it a notable birdwatching spot. Anglers come here for Caspian roach, carp and catfish, though the shores can get crowded with fishermen on weekends: for a quieter visit, a weekday is a better choice.
Picnicking and camping around the lake are both possible. There's no dedicated visitor infrastructure (cafés, toilets) on site.
