Modrava, Mountain village in Klatovy District, Czech Republic.

The village of Modrava spreads across 81 square kilometers at an elevation of 985 meters in the Bohemian Forest region near the German border.

The settlement first appeared in written records in 1614 and developed from 1757 as a fishing and hunting community in the Klatovy region.

The Klostermann Hut, constructed in 1924 by the Czech Tourist Club, stands as a monument named after writer Karel Klostermann who documented regional life.

During winter months, visitors access the main cross-country skiing trail known as Sumava Highway, while summer activities include hiking through marked forest paths.

The Vydra River originates in Modrava before joining the Kremelna to form the Otava River, creating a significant water source in the Plzen Region.
