Hannibal famously crossed the Alps to reach Rome during the Second Punic War. His journey through this mountain range was a strategic maneuver aimed at surprising the Roman forces. The crossing was fraught with challenges, including harsh weather conditions and difficult terrain, but it ultimately allowed Hannibal to invade Italy from the north.
