The Big Dam Bridge, near Little Rock, is an excellent spot for viewing if there is watercraft locking through Murray Lock.
Opened in 2006, the pedestrian and bicycle bridge built over Murray Lock and Dam between Murray Park in Little Rock and Cook’s Landing Park in North Little Rock is a major addition to the Arkansas River Trail, connecting several miles of hiking and biking trails on both sides of the river.
