The Kocbek Lodge at Korošica (Slovene: Kocbekov dom na Korošici; 1,803 meters or 5,915 feet) is a mountain lodge that stands on the Korošica Plateau below the southern slope of Mount Ojstrica. It is named after Fran Kocbek, an early promoter of mountain hiking in Kamnik–Savinja Alps. The first lodge, which was built in 1876, burned down in 1881. A year later a new one was built. During World War II it was captured by Germans. From 1969 to 1973 it was expanded and modified.
