You could also draw your route onto the map image freehand in photo editing software - Photoshop would be good for both of the above. Have you looked into using dedicated mapping software such as memory maps?
Yes, I was thinking of the same methodology. You are right, aligning the scanned image and the google earth image is the first obstacle.

Memory Maps, Tracklogs etc is only viewing software and cant be used to edit the underlying maps. I was after some info on map making software, which is a different thing I think.

There seem to be a few products, for example Map Maker and OCAD. Does anyone have experience of doing this kind of thing?
