Walden Pond, in Concord, is a revered and celebrated cultural and historical icon. Walden Pond was made famous by transcendentalist philosopher and writer Henry David Thoreau, who lived there in the 1840s for two years while writing one of his most famous works, "Walden".

This serene site remains a source of inspiration for writers, nature enthusiasts, seekers of contemplation, and some believe that Walden Pond was also the start of the conservation movement.

Geologically, Walden Pond formed from a glacial depression during the last Ice Age, around 10,000-12,000 years ago. As a block of ice melted, it left a depression that filled with water, resulting in the pond we know today in Concord, Massachusetts.
