Map of countries coloured according to their highest point

The following sortable table lists land surface elevation extremes by country or dependent territory.

Topographic elevation is the vertical distance above the reference geoid, a mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface.

National elevation ranges

[edit]

Of all countries, Lesotho has the world's highest low point at 1,400 metres (4,593 ft). Other countries with high low points include Rwanda (950 metres (3,117 ft)) and Andorra (840 metres (2,756 ft)). Countries with very low high points include Maldives (5 m), Tuvalu (5 m) and the Marshall Islands (10 m). These island countries also have the smallest range between their lowest (sea level) and highest points, and are very sensitive to changes in sea level.

The highest and lowest points in China constitute the greatest elevation range within any single country at 9,002 m. The elevation ranges are also great in Nepal (8,789 m), Pakistan (8,611 m), and India (8,588 m).

Monaco's elevation range is among the greatest relative to surface area. Within its 2.02 km2 territory, there is a difference of 140 m between its highest and lowest points, giving a ratio of 69 m for every km2. In Australia's 7,686,850 square kilometres (2,967,910 sq mi) area there is only a 2,244 metres (7,362 ft) difference between the highest and lowest points, which gives a ratio of 292 micrometres (0.0115 in) per km2.

The highest point of the plateau is inside Venezuelan territory at 2,810 metres (9,220 ft). The Guyanese part of Mount Roraima is in a region claimed by Venezuela as Guayana Esequiba.
