Ovcharets () is a summit in eastern Rila mountain range in southwestern Bulgaria reaching height of 2,768 m. It is located in Rila National Park. Ovcharets is built up of granite.

The peak lies on the Musala ridge, in the vicinity of a few other peaks of almost identical height. Ovcharets is south of the summit of Marishki Chal (2,765 m), and next to it, on a short ridge to the east, is the summit of Pesokliva Vapa (2,769 m). The southern slope of Ovcharets is extended and reaches as far as the Dzanka saddle.
