Contest Brief

We are designing a new website for our bicycle tours. You can see the current website at bikeswitzerland.com

We do four different bicycle tours across Switzerland and we need your help to create four new buttons on the website to represent the four different tours.
Here's are the names and a little information on each tour:
1. Lite Tour: This is a relatively flat and easy tour across Switzerland. We go through the swiss countryside and visit lots of towns. We do only around 50 kilometers per day.

2. Challenge Tour: A more difficult tour that also goes across Switzerland. There are some climbs and all cyclists need to be in good shape to do this tour.
We average around 75 kilometers per day. The tour goes through some of the more "classic" cities in Switzerland and probably the best tour for people who want to "see it all".

3. Jura Tour: This is a difficult tour with lots of climbs in the Jura Mountains. It's a long tour and we average 90 kilometers per day. The itinerary is different from the other tours in that it is 1/2 in Switzerland and 1/2 in France. The tour is also very rural. We recommend this tour for people who want to bike hard and stay close to nature, (as most of our hotels are in very small villages)

4. Alpine Tour: This tour is as difficult as the Jura Tour, but we go across Switzerland through the Alps (like in the Challenge Tour). However, it's more difficult than the Challenge Tour and is a very good tour for people who want to climb in the mountains.

Directions: At the moment, we've just developed some simple buttons/icons like the ones attached in "Example 1". However, I don't like this solution.
I'd like the buttons for each tour to have a different feeling depending on the tour. For this reason, I've described the tours above so the artist can think about how to make each button a bit different.

The icons/buttons do not have to be any specific shape or size at the moment.

I do like the idea of having mountains in the buttons/icons....more mountains on the difficult tours, less on the "Lite Tour", for example.
I've included three other images (see "samples") to give examples of some icons/logo that I like.

Thanks for your help.
