• Overview

Wallenpaupack Creek is a tributary of the Lackawaxen River in the Poconos of eastern Pennsylvania in the United States.Wallenpaupack is from the Lenape language and has been interpreted as "deep, dead water" or "the stream of swift and slow water."Approximately 13miles (21km) of the lower Wallenpaupack Creek lies buried beneath Lake Wallenpaupack, an artificial reservoir created when the utility Pennsylvania Power and Light (PPL) dammed the creek in 1926 as a water supply for a 44 MW hydroelectric power plant.
