From Sisters, turn South on Elm Street (Road 16 right in downtown) and park in the trail area near Three Creek Lake.
The lakes are at considerably higher elevation than Sisters and it can be chilly even on day that is warm in town. Dress in layers, bring a jacket and some water, and some insect repellent is a good idea.
Tam McArthur Rim Trail is clearly marked on the left hand side of the road as you round the bend and first see 3 Creeks Lake.
The round trip to the cliff-edge viewpoint overlooking the Three Sisters is five miles The hike is fairly strenuous, partly because it is at relatively high elevation; five miles may feel like more than it sounds.
