This lies 3 km north-west of the Mekedag crater lake, turning left on the Konya-Karapinar-Eregli highway. This lake, which can be seen from the highway is at the same level as Mekedag lake.
It is in a hollow 70 m from the road. As will be understood from its name the water in this lake is bitter and not potable. It is circular and covers an area of approximately 1 km². When descending to the shore of the lake one encounter volcanic tufa and sand layers and is said to be deep.
By moonlight the waters of the lake sparkle and shine like the sea's phosphorescence.
