Buynovo Gorge or Buynovsko Gorge (Bulgarian: Буйновско ждрело) is a limestone gorge in the western Rhodope Mountains located near Yagodina, between Borino and Grohotno. The gorge was cut near the Byunovska River. The most narrow spot of the gorge is called the Wolf's Jump after a local legend. The legend involves wolves leaping across the gorge to attack the sheep pens on the other side.
