Oreobates zongoensis is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is endemic to Bolivia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.

Oreobates zongoensis is only known from the holotype from Zongo Valley in the Murillo Province. The type locality has been entirely destroyed with the construction of a hydroelectric power plant, and it is not known whether the species still survives, despite efforts to find it.
