Arkansas Highway 35 is a northwest–southeast state highway in southeast Arkansas. The route runs 115.83 miles (186.41 km) from Dewey near the Mississippi River northwest to Arkansas Highway 5 in Benton.
The route begins in Dewey at Macon Lake Road near Island number 81 on the Mississippi River. AR 35 runs through bayous and fields in Chicot County, briefly entering Desha County for a junction with AR 159/AR 208 in Halley.
Returning to Chicot County, AR 35 intersects the four-lane divided US 65/US 278 and US 165 east of Dermott, before entering the city. AR 35 serves Dermott as Speedway St before entering Drew County. The highway runs south of the Seven Devils Swamp WMA along the Arkansas Midland Railroad tracks until Monticello. AR 35 is concurrent with US 278, and later US 425 until the northwest corner of Monticello, where AR 35 turns northwest away from US 425. The highway continues northwest, intersecting AR 530, which is an under-construction segment of the future Monticello Bypass (the bypass itself is a portion of the long-term plan to extend Interstate 69 through Arkansas). A sign exists at where AR 32 will meet I-69 that states "Future I-69 Corridor <--->".
