Extremely friendly for wheelchair access. Still a decent amount of pushing though. It is on a steep mountain.

It really depends on if it's an electric wheelchair or the mobility of the person and their ability to ride the tram... They do have wheelchairs at the zoo for people that need them and if you're coming from somewhere else with a lower elevation and wanting to have someone push a wheelchair with an adult in it that is unable to use the tram... They are in for a long hard day!!! They even have an outdoor elevator and if you are going to have somebody pushing someone else in a wheelchair I would start at the top if possible and I would also bring more than one person to push nor is it easy to keep the wheelchair from going uncontrolled down the Steep Mountain!!

Anywhere you go there is option to go around the steps and use just an asphalt to go in between so sections, also there is are elevators. :)

There's a lot of uphill but you should be able to go everywhere. There are elevators where there are stairs and a $2 shuttle if that works better

$2 for a shuttle ride on the black top.

Very much so. I used a stroller Everytimw and it was so accessible. Elevators and ramps. However, it's all on a hill so if pushing is needed it may be difficult. But yes, you can use a wheelchair or the shuttle will stop at different places as well.
