I find it difficult to make this distinction. How can you see whether a route “is” touristic or not? IMHO it depends on the use the cyclist makes of the infrastructure whether it is one or the other. Or is it about signposts?

Maybe it’s just that in my hometown cycling infrastructure is still quite underdeveloped, for example one of the literally most popular cycle routes is legally forbidden for bicycles (despite the rent a bikes and operated tours along it) :)
