The Shishged River (Template:Lang-mn, Template:Lang-ru) a river in northern Mongolia and in Tuva. It is part of the Yenisei's drainage basin, and the headwaters of the so-called Little (Small) Yenisei. It flows through the Darkhad Valley in northwestern Khövsgöl aimag, Mongolia and then westward through the Ulaan Taiga Mountain range to Russia. There it is joined by the Büsein River and Bilin Rivers to form the Kyzyl-Khem. Of its 344 km length, 298 are in Mongolia. A bridge has been erected near Renchinlkhümbe sum center.

Encyclopaedia Britannica, Great Soviet Encyclopedia and Great Russian Encyclopedia do not view Shishged River as a separate river and include it to the upper reaches of the Little Yenisei River.[1][2][3][4]
