About Lake Akşehir
Lake Akşehir (Turkish: Akşehir Gölü) is a tectonic freshwater endorheic lake in Afyonkarahisar and Konya provinces, in the southwestern part of Turkey. It carries the same name as the town of Akşehir south of the lake.
The lake is fed by the Eber Channel, five larger streams from the Sultan Mountains, and many smaller streams. The lake's salinity increases towards the middle and northern parts due to underground spring waters. The lake is used for irrigation.
