The Planika Lodge at Triglav ({{langx|sl|Dom Planika pod Triglavom}}; 2401 m) is a mountain hut, which lies on the Ledine plains on the southern side of Mount Triglav. The First hut, also called the Triglav Tempe ({{lang|sl|Triglavski tempelj}}), was built on 18 September 1871. In 1877, the Austro-German hiking club built a hut called the Maria Theresa Hut ({{langx|de|Maria Theresia-Hütte}}; Slovene: {{lang|sl|Koča Marije Terezije}}). On 13 August 1911, there was another building added called the Maria Theresa Lodge ({{lang|sl|Dom Marije Terezije}}). After World War I, the Slovenian Hiking club took over the hut and renamed it the Aleksander Lodge ({{lang|sl|Aleksandrov dom}}). The hut was transformed to a border garrison {{lang|sl|Karaula}} for a while. In 1945, the Gorje Hiking Club ({{lang|sl|PD Gorje}}) renamed it to Planika Lodge at Triglav. In 1987, {{lang|sl|Karaula}} was demolished and a bigger annex was built at its place on 19 August 1992.
