<div>In the present case and to answer your question, I would
prefer portage=*

<div>This would leave open multiple possibilities for values,
yes/no, canoe. kayak, etc., that might more fully describe
the portage.The other two are too limited or specialized,
IMO. <br>

Yep, the broader the key the better .. you never know what things
will crop up in the future. <br>

<div>Another issue regarding canoe routes which needs to be
addressed at some point in the future is that there is, to
my knowledge, no way to tag the waterway portions of a canoe
trail or route. <br>

I'd think that canoe routes should be done similar to bicycle
routes... maybe mountain bike as they have some system for the
difficulty of the route.. <br>
<br>
There should be an OSM wiki page on it. <br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi, I'd like to add some tags for canoe
portages (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage"
target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage</a>) in
wilderness areas. These would be trails tagged
highway=path plus some tag to designate that they're used
for portaging between lakes. I have found three different
tags that are currently used to tag portages (there may be
others?), and am wondering if anyone has recommendations
about what would be best.
