Stojków developed into a summer resort and tourist village in the 1840s. In 1845, the Waldweg promenade ran from the spa town through the municipal forest to Stojków. For the period before 1882, two forest promenades leading to Stojków are described: an upper one and a lower one. The accounts emphasize different details: for 1845, the Waldweg’s name and route are specified, while the earlier date highlights the distinction between the upper and lower promenades. Together, they provide a glimpse of the village’s early tourism development and the historic routes that led to Stojków.

The buildings that have survived to this day date from the second half of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th century. A wayside shrine near house No. 17 is older: it dates from the early 19th century. The “Zacisze” house at No. 42 was built around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The bridge over the Biała Lądecka also dates from the early 20th century; the railway station building is dated to around 1910.

These dates point to several construction phases rather than a single period. The wayside shrine predates Stojków’s development into a tourist village. “Zacisze” dates to the turn of the century, while the bridge and railway station building belong to the early 20th century. Those interested in local history can place the buildings in chronological order without conflating their different dates.

The easy leisure cycling route “Do Lądka – Zdroju” runs from Stronie Śląskie via Strachocin and Stojków to Lądek-Zdrój. It is listed as 6 km one way and 45 minutes.
