The Arkansas River is the sixth longest river in the United States (1,469 miles). At Little Rock the river is part of the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System operated by the Army Corps of Engineers.

Along the river in downtown Little Rock is the historic landmark La Petite Roche ("the little rock") from which the city derives its name.
