The Chepino Saddle (English; Bulgarian Чепинска седловина Tschepinska sedlowina ) is a 2500 m high mountain saddle in the west Antarctic Ellsworthland . In the north-central part of the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains , it connects the Probuda Ridge in the southwest with the Bangey Heights in the northeast. It forms part of the watershed between the Embree Glacier in the north and the Ellen Glacier in the south.
American scientists mapped it in 1988. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2011 after a region in southern Bulgaria .
