Valthe is a village in the Dutch province of Drenthe. It is a part of the municipality of Borger-Odoorn, and lies about 8 km north of Emmen.

== History == The village was first mentioned in 1217 as "in Valten", and probably means "cow shed". Valthe is an esdorp which developed in the Middle Ages. It is possibly daughter settlement of Odoorn. The village centre is called Oud-Valthe and did not have a church, but was encircled by five essen (communal pastures).
