the distinction of the spatial scope (regional, local, etc) can still be made with the common tags lcn etc., scenic would be an additional attribute, not the only means of classification, but I agree we would want to know what kind of scene the route is themed as (e.g. wine, coastal, tree lined roads (e.g. https://alleenstrasse.com/ ), castles, …). Maybe it could be done with a two step system: first a coarse classification, e.g. scenic=natural, cultural, and a second tag for the specific detailing (if you wish).

The same tags describing the scenic qualities/route topic could be used for all kinds of routes (other than bicycles also for hiking, roads, maybe even railways)
