Hingyon, officially the Municipality of Hingyon is a municipality in the province of Ifugao, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 9,966 people.

==Etymology== The name “Hingyon” was derived from the Ifugao term “Hing-ngiyon”, meaning a diversion from a major route. The main route then, and even now, is the national road connecting the municipalities of Lagawe and Banaue and the diversion road is at Barangay Piwong, now a part of Hingyon, going towards the municipal mainland.
