Renchinlhümbe () is a district of Khövsgöl Province in Mongolia. Its area is approximately , of which are pasture and 35% are forest. As of the 2000 census, it had a population of 4,284, most of whom belonged to the Darkhad subgroup. The district centre is officially named Zöölön (), which is north of Mörön and from Ulaanbaatar.

== History == Renchinlhümbe was founded, together with the whole Khövsgöl aimag, in 1931. In 1933, it had about 1,800 inhabitants in 544 households, and about 32,000 heads of livestock. The local Altan Tal (Golden Steppe) negdel was founded in 1956. The Zöölöngiin Khüree monastery (est. in 1750) had been located near what is now the sum center since 1771. In 1985, the sum was split into two to form the new Tsagaannuur sum and leaving the original Renchinlhümbe sum area to be smaller.
