Sunday hike with the main objective of ascending Langelihøgdi, a minor summit on the Opptur Hordaland list. I started by taking the train to Voss and the bus to Folkedal, or more specifically Nedre Folkedal. Here I got off the bus and continued on foot along the paved road to Øvre Folkedal where a gravel-covered toll road led me up towards Helgastøl.

Just south of Helgastøl I left the now very icy gravel road and did my best to follow the partially hidden marked trail via Helgastøl until getting just east of Langelihøgdi. The summit could then easily be reached via a short off-trail detour.

After a short break to enjoy the excellent views to the surrounding higher peaks, I returned the same way to Helgastøl. Initially I had considered going via Kalvbakkehøgdi and Håli during the descent, but in the end I decided to not take any chances that could result in missing the bus.

To still have some variation, I made an attempt at following the marked trail down to Øvre Folkedal. While this route was overall well marked, the trail itself probably does not see a lot of use, I even lost it a couple of times, and it would probably have been both easier and faster to simply return along the gravel road.

All that remained was then to follow the paved road back to the bus stop for the drive back to Voss and the train home to Bergen, concluding a nice hike with excellent views along the way that can definitely be recommended.
