I don’t know about hiking paths, etc. But the state I live in has signed a 
number of vehicle highways with scenic route signs. [1] At least in that case, 
there is an objective criteria for tagging, though not with the a level value 
as suggested. I’ve not gotten around to deciding what tagging I’d put on the 
officially designated scenic routes but assumed it would be scenic=yes on the 
various qualifying segments. Based on this thread, perhaps that might be better 
signed_scenic=yes.

Another similar thing, again for automobile roads, the national park service 
has some historic routes signed showing the way early explorers traveled prior 
to modern development. [2][3] I assume that would be tagged using a route 
relation. The written description of the exact routes are confusing enough, at 
least to me, that I think an on the ground survey would be needed to properly 
map them.
