The small hydropower plant Vydra is situated near the junction of the Vydra and Kremelna rivers between the villages Rejstejn and Srni in the Susice district.

There used to be a saw mill (Cenek´s Saw Mill [CZ: Cenkova pila]) at what is now a water power plant. The saw mill was founded by a Prague entrepreneur with wood Cenek Bubenícek at the confluence of the rivers Kremelná and Vydra.

There is a photo exhibition of Sumava hydropower plants, available to the public.
