Hugleik or Ochilaik (a namesake of Hygelac) was a Swedish king of the house of Scylfings according to Heimskringla. He was the son of Alf and Bera.
He was not a warlike man but preferred to rule in peace. He liked to be in the company of jesters and shamans.
He was attacked by the Viking chief Haki on the Fyris Wolds, and Haki killed both Hugleik and his two sons.
They were to be avenged by Jorund.
Some commentators assimilate Hugleik with his namesake, the Geatish king Hygelac. However, this is unlikely, as the stories of the two kings do not compare at all.
