Well yes, and the few others I know that have done more than one ride up there recommend taking a full suspension or a fatbike. One had a rim and the rear triangle of a full suspension bike crack there. But it would be possible to travel the distance with a rigid bike too, it would just be slower and harder, more walking. I did do a trip in a different part of Lapland on a gravelbike, 650b 2.2" and 48 mm. Had fun but a hardtail would have been better. There's pictures of that on the first page.

I got really envious of that lapland trip coming back here now. So, so beatiful.
It looks like you need the front squish. And sadly I dont own a hardtail. But thats not the only thing between me and doing it.
