Walhonding is an unincorporated community and coal town in southeastern Valley Township, Guernsey County, Ohio, United States.
Walhonding was a former mining community and home to two mine shafts known as walhonding mine no. 1 and walhonding mine no.2. Today little remains reflecting this history besides a large slate pile and a few abandoned mining homes. The roads in this area reflect the names of former residents many of which were of Czech and Slovak ancestry.
