Ben Geren Trail is paved, smooth, and makes a 5 mile loop. We parked in the lot off of Golf Course Loop road and went south because it looked shadier. Trees and bushes provide some screening from the communities that it passes through but they're not tall enough to provide a lot of shade.
I should have checked the elevation map before starting out. The trail goes up hill for about a mile with some 10% grades. That's tough in a wheelchair even with an energetic helper. The trail going north from the parking lot is almost flat for the first mile then it goes uphill too. The middle section looks like it's rolling but we'll never find out because we turned around when got to the top of the first hill at the 1 mile mark. :D
