The Karabakh Plateau (Azerbaijani: Qarabağ yaylası) or Syunik Plateau (Syuniki bardzravandak) is a volcanic plateau of the Lesser Caucasus, in Armenia and Azerbaijan, in the most eastern point of Armenian Highlands. It extends from the south of the Murovdag/Mrav range towards the East Sevan Range. (The Great Soviet Encyclopedia locates the plateau between the Zangezur Mountains and the Karabakh Range.)

It features a number of extinct volcanoes, the highest being Qızılboğaz (3581 m).
