Rimpi or Rimminkylä is a small village in northeastern Kuhmo, Finland, near the border with Russia. While sometimes considered part of the larger village of Vartius, Rimpi is distinguished from it and the rest of Kuhmo by its traditionally Karelian-speaking Orthodox Christian population, being one of three Karelian settlements in the Kainuu region along with Kuivajärvi and Hietajärvi in neighboring Suomussalmi.
As of 2020, there were no permanent inhabitants in Rimpi.
