"off to the Sola Hut," usually by the busload. Activities for Solahütte guests included hunting, hiking, sunbathing, and excursions to the nearby lake and peaks. Wartime snapshots made at Solahütte are somewhat jarring because of the lightheartedness of the people pictured: Some of history's most infamous war criminals are shown cheerily singing along to accordion music, loafing on deckchairs, or giggling over desserts with the female Aufseherinnen or Helferinnen.
