The Arnik River is a river of Guyana, a tributary of the Potaro River.[2]

The Arnik River is seen as a common boundary between Amerindian villages of Chenapou and Karisparu. It was a point of conflict when the land title was seen as unfavorable to Chenapou.[3]

The surrounding forest area was a site for balata bleeding.[4]
