A method for assisting the piloting of an aircraft includes the following steps: detecting obstacles in an environment of the aircraft; determining a protection zone surrounding each detected obstacle; determining an initial trajectory followed by the aircraft; if the initial trajectory enters a protection zone, determining a corrected trajectory such that the aircraft avoids the protection zone; applying the corrected trajectory to the aircraft; and outputting at least one haptic alert in a flight control stick of the aircraft, the haptic alert indicating a direction of deflection applied to the aircraft when applying the corrected trajectory. Piloting is thus assisted by providing ergonomic and simple alerts, so as to guarantee a safe trajectory for the aircraft.
