The answer is, it depends.
The range of LoRa will depend on, LoRa settings used (bandwidth, spreading factor), transmit power, transmit antenna type, receive antenna type and of course frequency and height.
The longest distance I have seen reported is 702km;

Thats 868Mhz, 25mw and I beleive SF12 at bandwidth 125khz.
The radio horizon at that height (38722km) is 811km, so with suitably chosen LoRa parameters the limiting factor for reception is likley to be the radio horizon.
