Number of visits to the Banias springs in Israel 2019-2022
In 2022, the Israeli Nature and Parks Authority registered 521.7 thousand visits to the Banias springs in Israel. This was a substantial increase of over 36 percent compared to the previous year. In contrast, in 2020, the number of visits decreased significantly. This decline occurred due to the Israeli government's introduction of tourism and leisure restrictions following the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in March of that year.
