Plaiul Cucului
The symbolic starting point and initiator of the project.
An initiative starting at Plaiul Cucului
How farDOES THE CUCKOO FLY?
Discover Bihor. Places, people and stories on one map.
We start in Tărcaia and let the Cuckoo fly farther and farther: through Beiuș Land, towards places that receive too little attention and, step by step, across the whole of Bihor County.

FROM ONE POINT TO A WHOLE NETWORK
Plaiul Cucului is the beginning.
Plaiul Cucului is the beginning.
Bihor is the map.
We do not want to promote only one place. We want to connect attractions, local businesses and communities so that anyone who reaches one point can also discover what is worth seeing nearby.
Beiuș Land
Well-known places and valuable locations that still receive too little promotion.
Communities and experiences
Nature, heritage, food, accommodation, activities and local people.
Across Bihor County
A regional tourism network that keeps growing without losing its point of origin.
WHAT GOES ON THE MAP
Not only tourist attractions.
Not only tourist attractions.
Everything that can make a place memorable.
NEXT STAGE · MAP V1
A real map that grows with the project.
The interactive map will start at Plaiul Cucului and show points of interest in their real geographic position. Zoom in and you see individual locations; zoom out and nearby points group intelligently so larger areas remain easy to explore without clutter.
CONCEPT PREVIEWTHE INTERACTIVE MAP WILL BE BUILT IN THE NEXT STAGE
Real locations
Every point will have exact coordinates and its own information card.
Smart clusters
At wider zoom levels, nearby points automatically group together.
Filters
Nature, caves, restaurants, accommodation, pools, family and more.
Take me there
Navigation will launch directly from the location card.

THE SIGNATURE FEATURE“Where does the Cuckoo fly from here?”
Open one place and the system recommends the next interesting experiences nearby.
FROM ONLINE TO THE REAL WORLD
Local information boards that send visitors exactly where they need to go.
In partner communities, “How Far Does the Cuckoo Fly?” boards will present the area, nearby points of interest and a QR code that opens that exact area or location.
See the area
The board shows where you are and what is worth discovering nearby.
Scan the QR
Your phone opens that exact area on the project map.
Fly farther
Discover more places, restaurants, accommodation and experiences around you.
A NETWORK WE BUILD TOGETHER
Municipalities, institutions, local businesses and sponsors.
Every community can showcase its real attractions and local people. Support can fund the digitisation of an area, a tourism board, documentation of points of interest or the development of the platform.
Our principle: sponsorship supports the project, but it does not buy relevance on the map. Places should be presented fairly regardless of who funds their promotion.
KNOW A PLACE THAT IS MISSING?
Help us put it on the map.
It can be a waterfall, a church, a ravine, a restaurant, a guesthouse, a local producer or a place mostly known by people from the area. Tell us its name and locality. In the dedicated stage we will also open the full “Suggest a place” form.
