A plain can occur at a high elevation, and mountains can be next to the ocean (and therefore not be especially ‘high’ in elevation. The difference is the DIFFERENCE in elevation. Mountains are substantially - noticeably - taller than the surrounding ‘level’ land. Plains are level (near-flat to gently rolling) large areas.

The difference in elevation in mountains between highest and lowest points is frequently in the thousands of feet of difference.
