The city is located west of the core of Haren, directly on the western border with the Netherlands, directly on the north-south direction K 202 and the eastern K 242. The A 31 runs to the east.
The 45.6 km long south-north channel runs through the village. Fehndorf is like all surrounding communities in the Bourtanger Moor, which used to be the largest contiguous swamp area in Western Europe. It is located in the Emsland west of the Ems and was one of the largest peat areas in Germany until the 1950s. It extends west to the Netherlands and is named after the Dutch fortified town of Bourtange.
