HistoryEdit

Before World War II, three lodges – Ruše Lodge, Čander Lodge (Čandrova koča; named after an old Pohorje family Robnik–Čander), and Planika, together with St. Henry's Church (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.
