Dovže () is a village in the Municipality of Mislinja in northern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Carinthia. It is now included in the Carinthia Statistical Region.

==Geography== Dovže lies between the right bank of the Mislinja River and the foothills of the Pohorje Massif below the Razborca Ridge () on an alluvial fan mostly consisting of gravel above Tertiary clay and loam. It includes the hamlets of Spodnje Dovže (literally, 'lower Dovže') at the lower edge of the fan and Zgornje Dovže (literally, 'upper Dovže') at the confluence of Dovžanka and Turičnica creeks. The soil is relatively fertile, and has a heavy loam consistency in places. Most of the gravelly terrace is covered by tilled fields. Coniferous woods stand to the northwest towards Brda.
