France is mostly plains (especially on the Western side) or low raised plateaus with an altitude less than 300 metres.

Five major landforms may be :

- plains (plaine de la Brie, Plaine de la Beauce)

- plateaus (plateau des Causses, plateau des Cévennes)

- hills (collines des Vosges, collines du Sancerrois)

- valleys (vallée de la Loire, vallée du Rhône)

- mountains (Alps, Pyrénées, Massif Central)

The highest mountain ranges are the French Alps, borduring Italy and the South of Switzerland (Mont Blanc has the highest elevation in Europe), the Pyrénées straddling the border with Spain, and the smaller Massif du Jura borduring Swirtzerland. The Massif Central is another, older mountain range of lower elevation in south central France.

The major rivers are the Seine River (777km) flowing through Paris and then northwest to the English Channel at Le Havre; the Loire (1013 km) running north, then west at Orleans, to Nantes on the Atlantic coast. The Dordogne also flows westward to the Atlantic. The Rhone flows downward from Switzerland at the foot of the Alps, into the Mediterranean Sea at Marseilles.

Quebec has the St. Lawrence lowlands, Monteregian hills, and the Appalachian highlands. The Canadian Shield covers 80% of Quebec and is made of the Laurentians and Torngat Mountains.
