Buni (Khowar, ; also spelled Booni) is a town and the headquarters of Upper Chitral District in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The high Qaqlasht Meadows, which host a major festival in the region, are situated near the town.

Lying near the foothills of the Buni Zom, Buni is located in proximity to glacial lakes due to which the town has faced floodings various times. Through the glacial melting followed by heavy monsoon rainfalls, the region was severely affected by the floods during August 2024.
