The European 'Golden October' can be compared to North America's Indian Summer. In Germany, the Golden October is impressive in low mountain forest areas, as depicted in this image which shows the view from the Humpfertturm lookout tower in the forest of Iserlohn-Letmathe (near Dortmund), which belongs to the low mountain region Sauerland.
