If its an official / waymarked route, you can create a route relation 
for it.
See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Walking_Routes#Relations and 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route

That lists tags for colour and symbol. I don't know if any renderers 
will show the route colour / symbol, but there might be some walking / 
hiking maps that could show them.
