She is said to have sustained abrasions and lacerations in the fall on her face.
A family member told Global News the woman fainted due to, what she believed was, dehydration.
The location was difficult to navigate as crews removed her from the area and transported her to hospital.
She was loaded onto a backboard and taken out of the park in the back of an all terrain vehicle then transferred to an ambulance.
