The Iskanderdarja ( Tajik Искандардарё ; Russian Искандердарья́ ) is the left source river of the Fandarja in Tajikistan .
The Iskanderdarja forms the outflow of the moraine lake Iskanderkul . It flows from its northeast bank in a predominantly northeast direction through a mostly narrow gorge of the Hissar Mountains and after about 20 km reaches the Jagnob , with which it unites to form Fandarja.
The Iskanderdarja drains an area of approx. 950 km². At the Istok gauge at the discharge from the Iskanderkul, the mean discharge is 18.7 m³ / s. In June and July the Iskander Darya has the highest drainage.
The settlements of Narwad , Dischik and Chaironbed lie on the river. The access road to Iskanderkul runs through the valley.
