A method and a system for providing a rotorcraft with assistance in taking off from a slope. The rotorcraft includes at least one lift rotor provided with a plurality of blades, control devices for controlling the pitches of the blades, and landing gear provided with at least three ground contact members. The method comprises a step of measuring a piece of information relating to the forces to which each ground contact member is subjected during a landing phase for landing on the slope, a step of measuring at least one piece of information relating to the pitches of the blades during the landing phase, and a control step for controlling the pitches of the blades during the takeoff phase during which the rotorcraft takes off after the landing as a function of the measurements taken during the landing in order to enable a takeoff to be performed that is safe and simplified.
