The Logar River drains a wide tract of country, rising in Maidan Wardak Province on the southern slopes of the Sanglakh Range and receiving tributaries from hills in the Kharwar District, north-east of Ghazni.

The fertile and well irrigated Logar Valley, which is watered by the Logar's southern tributaries, is about 64 km (40 mi) long and 19 km (12 mi) wide.

Lying in the vicinity of the capital, the district contributes significantly to its food supply.
