The Ruše Lodge (Slovenian: Ruška koča), or the Tine Lodge at Areh (Slovenian: Tinetov dom pri Arehu; 1246m (4,088feet)) is a mountain lodge in the Pohorje Mountains (northeastern Slovenia), built by locals in 1907. It is open through the whole year.
Before World War II, three lodges – Ruše Lodge, Čander Lodge (Slovenian: Čandrova koča; named after an old Pohorje family Robnik–Čander), and Planika, together with St. Henry's Church (Slovenian: cerkev sv. Areha), formed a mountain resort. The lodges were burned during the war. The current lodge was built in 1946 and expanded in 1977. Due to the demand, a new Čander Lodge was also built.
