Vihren is the highest peak of Bulgaria's Pirin Mountains. Reaching 2,914 metres , it is Bulgaria's second and the Balkans' third highest, after Musala and Mount Olympus.

Until 1942 Vihren was known as Eltepe ; it was also called Buren and Malnienosets . The UNESCO World Heritage Site Pirin National Park was originally known as the Vihren National Park.

To the north Pirin is separated from Bulgaria's highest mountain range, the Rila Mountains, by the Predel saddle, while to the south it reaches the Slavyanka Mountains.
