The Alps. Hannibal broke through famously, but no other mountain range can really lay claim to the number of armies that the Alps deflected.

The Carthaginian general Hannibal (247 – 182 BC) led 38,000 infantry, 8,000 cavalry, and 37 war elephants across the alps as part of the Second Punic War in Italy, in the winter of 218 BC. Many did not survive the conditions and skirmishes, arriving in the area of Turin with half the originally reported force.

The Pyrenees, the Alps, and the Carpathians are mountain ranges in Europe. The Pyrenees separate Spain and France, the Alps stretch across several countries including France, Switzerland, and Italy, and the Carpathians run through Central and Eastern Europe, including countries like Romania and Slovakia. These mountain ranges are known for their scenic landscapes, biodiversity, and outdoor recreation opportunities.
