The Hakari (Azerbaijani: Həkəri, Armenian: Հագարի, romanized: Hagari) is a left tributary of the Aras in Azerbaijan, geographically located in the Armenian Highlands.[1]
The river is 128 kilometres (80 mi) long and flows through the Lachin, Qubadli and Zangilan districts of Azerbaijan.[2] Its largest right tributary is the Vorotan (called Bazarchay in Azerbaijan), which joins the Hakari in its lowermost section.[1]
Several populated places are along the river, like Aganli (on the left bank), Alibayli (on the right bank), Mammadbayli (on the left bank) and Yenikend (on the right bank).[3] The elevation difference between the source and mouth is 2,812 metres (9,226 ft).[2] The river's water is used for irrigation and drinking.[2] Fish like trout and Arctic cisco spawn in the Hikari.[2]
