You defined normal fantasy, not High Fantasy.

Fantasy is pretty much what you said, it happens in an alternative world different from ours, with fantastical elements such as monsters, magic and similar things.

Low fantasy is when, despite having elements not present in our own world, said alternative world stays "down to Earth", when the fantasy elements are not so prominent or so over the top, making it feel pretty "realistic".

High Fantasy is the exact contrary, when said elements are very prominent and practically everywhere, making it clear this is far from realistic.

For example: Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire, would be Low Fantasy. Lord of the Rings is more High Fantasy.
