Light weight is a generally important feature for a lens in the landscape kit.
Packing light helps keep the photographer's energy up, and increased energy will allow him or her to better focus on capturing the desired image. The same need applies when hiking to a select location. When traveling by airline, you will want to keep your pack light. Landscape photography often requires travel to get to the ultimate landscape photography destination. Lenses need to be sharp enough to show the tiniest details. Landscape subjects typically have extremely fine details, and the sharp reproduction of these subjects is a requirement. What is needed is high contrast and resolution from corner to corner of the frame. Therefore and fortunately, landscape photography does not require the fastest lenses, those with the widest aperture and accompanying heaviest weight, largest size, and highest cost. While a wide aperture can be used to isolate a detail in the landscape or to capture the night sky, much landscape photography uses small apertures for significant DOF (Depth of Field). The focal length is of primary importance for landscape photography, but the max aperture is (usually) not. The ultra-wide-angle lenses will allow you to emphasize a foreground subject against an all-in-focus large scene, the telephoto lenses will keep distant subjects large in the frame, and the general-purpose lens will frequently find landscape application. Landscape photography can make use of all focal lengths Canon currently offers, from the widest angle through the longest telephoto, but I'll approximate the most useful range at 16-300mm. With a selection (or multiple selections) from each of the above categories, you will have lenses with a vast range of focal lengths for your landscape photography needs.
In addition, you will probably want one of these: The Best Canon Macro Lenses.
