In 1974, Horshim had one of the largest attractions in the country at the time. That same year, a Wild West set was built in the Horshim forest, and the Hollywood western Billy Two Hats starring the legendary Gregory Peck was filmed there. It was the first Hollywood production filmed in Israel.
Tens of thousands of film lovers came to the filming site in the woods to watch the cinematic wonder. On the flip side, the production crew, the actors and of course Gregory Peck himself came themselves to watch the kibbutz wonder.
After the filming was over, the set was abandoned and some say that it burned down. If it had survived, there is a reasonable chance that tens of thousands of tourists traveling on Route 6, would have made the stop to see Hollywood on the Kibbutz. Today, not many tourists stop at Kibbutz Horshim, which actually makes it a tourist attraction for those keen on taking a detour from the main tourist route.
