Patti,
‘ La montagne ‘ is correct.
In French, in the context of the ‘ endroit ‘, ‘ la montagne ‘ is used in the general sense, whereas the plural expression ‘ ( the ) mountains ‘ is used in English. Both the French and English titles for the exercise are appropriate to their native language use.
‘ Les montagnes ‘ would refer to specific mountains in this context, rather than being a general statement .
The dictation also uses the expression ‘ la montagne ‘ - “ mon endroit préféré “, ( comme elle a dit ).
