Pelton Pond

Oh, yes, the CCC!

Pelton Pond

Pelton Pond and Shelter built by the CCC in the 1930s


Pelton Pond in Fahnestock State Park makes for a great picnic spot. Located near the Taconic Parkway off Route 301 (which takes you to Cold Spring) its easily accessible. There is a shelter, picnic tables and grills to make for a nice outing. As I did today, you can take a nice 1.5 mile stroll around the pond.

    F-stock. Nice little place for x-country skiing, when there's snow. How many mintues does it take you to get there from Rhinebeck?

    It's fairly quick, about 40 min. I plan on exploring it further.
