Maly Volkhovets (Russian: Малый Волховец) is a right (eastern) armlet of the Volkhov River in Russia. It splits form the Volkhov 2 km below its outflow from the Lake Ilmen, bypasses the city of Veliky Novgorod (so that the eastern part of the city is situated on an island), and rejoins the Volkhov north of the Khutyn Monastery. Its length is 17 km. The Vishera River, one of the Volkhov's principal tributaries, joins the Maly Volkhovets.
