The Coteau des Prairies is a plateau approximately 200 miles in length and 100 miles in width (320 by 160 km), rising from the prairie flatlands in eastern South Dakota, southwestern Minnesota, and northwestern Iowa in the United States. The southeast portion of the Coteau comprises one of the distinct regions of Minnesota, known as Buffalo Ridge. The flatiron-shaped plateau was named by early French explorers from New France (Quebec), coteau meaning "hill" in French; the general term coteau has since been used in English to describe any upland dividing ridge.

  • Der Coteau des Prairies (auch Prairie Coteau genannt) ist eine Hochebene in der flachen Prärie im östlichen South Dakota, welche sich bis ins südwestliche Minnesota und nordwestliche Iowa erstreckt. Auf ihr liegen zahlreiche Seen. Das Plateau ist etwa 500 m hoch und 80 Kilometer breit. Die Hochebene hat die dreieckige Form eines Bügeleisens. Im nördlichen Bereich fällt der Coteau des Prairies steil in die Täler des James River und des Minnesota River ab. Im Süden geht das Hochland ohne klare Grenze in die Umgebung über. (de)
  • La Couteau des Prairies (original en francés) o meseta de las Praderas es una vasta meseta —320 km por 160 km— de la parte norcentral de los Estados Unidos que se extiende por las praderas de las Grandes Llanuras situadas al este de Dakota del Sur y al suroeste de Minnesota y de Iowa. La meseta de las Praderas fue llamada así por los primeros exploradores franceses y canadienses en la época de la Nueva Francia. En la meseta hay muchos pequeños lagos glaciales. Está encañada por el río Big Sioux, en Dakota del Sur, y el río Cottonwood en Minnesota. (es)
  • La Coteau des Prairies è un vasto altopiano che si estende su 320 km di lunghezza per 160 km di larghezza e che si innalza dalla prateria circostante tra la parte orientale del Dakota del Sud e il sud-ovest di Minnesota e Iowa, nel nord-ovest degli Stati Uniti. La Coteau des Prairies venne così nominata dai primi esploratori francese e canadesi al tempo della Nuova Francia. L'altopiano è composto da spessi depositi morenici, resti di vari periodi glaciali, che raggiungono in alcuni punti lo spessore di circa 275 metri. Vi è una piccola cresta di rocce scistose risalenti all'epoca del Cretaceo. (it)
