Moors or moorland are English. They are not plains. The following is a quote from Wikipedia

Moorland nowadays generally means uncultivated hill land (such as Dartmoor in South West England), but the Old English mōralso refers to low-lying wetlands (such as Sedgemoor, also SW England).

I can find no reference to "Broad Treeless Plains" located anywhere in the Highlands. What follows is the opening sentence to "Scottish Highlands" from Wikipedia.

The Scottish Highlands (Scottish Gaelic: A' Ghàidhealtachd, Scots: Hielans) include the rugged and mountainous regions of Scotland north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault, although the exact boundaries are not clearly defined, particularly to the east.
