Wallenpaupack Creek

Wallenpaupack Creek is a 30.0 mi tributary of the Lackawaxen River in the Pocono Mountains of eastern Pennsylvania in the United States.

Wallenpaupack is from the Unami language and has been interpreted as "deep, dead water" or "the stream of swift and slow water."

Approximately 13 mi of the lower Wallenpaupack Creek lies buried beneath Lake Wallenpaupack, a reservoir created when the utility PPL Corporation (PP&L) dammed the creek in 1926 as a water supply for a 44-megawatt hydroelectric power plant. The dividing line between the lake and the creek is the Ledgedale Road bridge. See map.
