I doubt a name like "Aare Route" can hold any copyright. And the natural place to get them from are the signs that are posted along the route.
If at all, we are talking about trade marks, not copyright. While "Aare Route" is extremely unlikely to be able to be registered, "Herzroute" and some of the more creative route names could be protected in principle. We are digressing in any case, because the route names are -not- displayed on the sign posts and the only place to get them is other SchweizMobil material.
As I pointed out earlier, I'm not particularly in favour of the current naming scheme, it's just been in place for a couple of years, and I don't see a reason to unilaterally change it without a concrete issue at hand or a community consensus to do so.
