The Ruchi is a mountain in the Glarus Alps, located on the border between the Swiss cantons of Glarus and Graubünden. It overlooks the Muttsee (2,446 m) on its west side from where a trail leads to the summit. On its south-east side lies a small glacier, the Glatscher da Gavirolas. The Ruchi is connected to the higher summit of the Hausstock on the north-east by a 2 kilometre long ridge.
