A meander is a big bend in a river. A meander that nearly loops back on itself is called an oxbow or gooseneck.

Meanders are made by rivers flowing over a floodplain. A single bend on its own is not a meander. Meanders occur in patterns and are normally found in the lower reaches of a river.

A meander is one of a series of regular sinuous curves, bends, loops, turns, or windings in the channel of a river, stream, or other watercourse. It is produced by a stream or river swinging from side to side as it flows across its floodplain or shifts its channel within a valley.
