Voynova Glava (1,386 m) is a peak in the Ruy mountain, on the border with Serbia, about 1.4 km west of Grozdina Chuka and about 11 km north-west of Tran; some lists give 1,387 m.
The peak stands on the border crest of Ruy, the northern rim of the Tran basin. South of it is Bubredzhi Kamak (1,282 m), and about 1.7 km to the south-west along the border is Nedelkyova Chuka.
Ruy is a massive, block-type mountain with a flat crest at 1,600–1,700 m and steep, stepped southern slopes down to the Tran basin. It is built of gneiss, schist, granite and granodiorite and covered in mixed broadleaf forest of beech, oak and hornbeam, with wide pastures along the crest. We found no waymarked route to the summit in the sources.
