"It's moving to see how the people of Israel continue to choose nature and connect to their roots," said KKL-JNF chairwoman Ifat Ovadia-Luski. More than 1.5 million people visited forests and parks across Israel managed by Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael-Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF) during Passover, the organization said in a press release. Several locations, including Hula Lake Park and Nahal HaShofet, were closed at times due to overcrowding, the organization stated. The top destinations for the North were Jordan Park, Switzerland Forest, Mevo Hama Forest, HaTkhelet Park, Goren Park, Adamit Park, Ein Zeitim Recreation Area, Parod Camping Park, and Hula Lake Park. The top KKL-JNF destinations in central Israel were Nahal HaShofet, Ilanot Arboretum, Ben Shemen Forest, Ayalon Canada Park, Britannia Park, and Sataf. The most-visited destinations in the South were HaMalachim-Shahariya Forest, Yatir Forest, Lahav Forest, Ofakim Park, Sharsheret Forest, and Re'im Recreation Area.
