Lake Dendi is a crater lake in Mirab (West) Shewa about 127km (79mi) southwest of Addis Ababa. The dumbbell-shaped crater lake is NW-SE oriented, and has its surface set at elevation of 2,836 meters (9,305 feet) above sea level.
The lake is about 5km (3mi) long, 2km (1.2mi) wide narrowing down to only about 220m (722ft) at the center where the two craters form an opening to merge which otherwise could have been two separate lakes. The surface area of Lake Dendi is about 8km² (3mi²).
