Borucino [bɔruˈt͡ɕinɔ] (German: Burzen) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Okonek, within Złotów County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) south-west of Okonek, 22 km (14 mi) north-west of Złotów, and 121 km (75 mi) north of the regional capital Poznań.

Before 1648 the area was part of Duchy of Pomerania, 1648-1945 Prussia and Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration by the Potsdam Agreement under territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union. Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.

The village has a population of 500.
