There is already quite a lot of information in the wiki about hiking
maps etc, at the very least you should link to all those pages. But
better to rearrange them in a more comprehensive form.

You must have seen:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Hiking_Map
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Hiking
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/HikingBikingMaps

Plus the external renderers:
http://osm.lonvia.de/world_hiking.html
etc

I'm very much in favour of improving both the quality of hiking data,
and its representation (particularly outside Europe). But do make an
effort to consolidate the existing material rather than just adding
another layer of paint over the top.
