Gravitational waves can either stretch or contract spacetime relative to a baseline. Since the Einstein field equations are nonlinear, I think gravitational waves can be "refracted" when traveling through a region with a high baseline curvature, so maybe waveguides are possible. Gravitational lenses do lens gravitational waves in addition to light.
