The 2.84 km2 lake is located just east of the village of Dingja, about 1 km southeast of the mouth of the Sognefjorden. The lake lies about 4 km north of the municipal center of Eivindvik. The lake flows out into the small Dingjaelva river, which runs past the village of Dingja before emptying into the Sognesjøen strait.
