The Muskingum River (/məˈskɪŋ(ɡ)əm/ mə-SKING-(g)əm; Shawnee: Wakatamothiipi)[4] is a tributary of the Ohio River, approximately 111 miles (179 km) long, in southeastern Ohio in the United States. An important commercial route in the 19th century, it flows generally southward through the eastern hill country of Ohio. Via the Ohio, it is part of the Mississippi River watershed. The river is navigable for much of its length through a series of locks and dams.
