Mandelring
With designations which are formed with "Mandel" there is no doubtless meaning possible. There are different interpretations: the name refers to a single or several almond trees or it is a name for a ring-shaped form. As a third possibility of interpretation there comes into question a derivation from the old German word "mandar, mandel" for pine (pinus sylvestris). The Mandelberge are probably meant as well as pine-covered mountainsides.
