Located in the Upper Engadin valley, Sils nestles between Lake Sils and Lake Silvaplana at the foot of Piz Corvatsch and Piz da la Margna and below the Fex valley. Sils was originally divided into the two hamlets of Sils-Baselgia and Sils-Maria, but the two now almost form a continuum. The town is in a flat plain between the two lakes, with steep slopes on either side. The plain is cultivated in grass, the steep slopes are heavily forested. The municipality is located in the Maloja district and consists of the village of Sils im Engadin/Segl which is made up of the sections of Sils-Maria, Sils-Baselgia, Fex, and Grevasalvas. Until 1943, Sils im Engadin/Segl was known as Sils im Engadin. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sils_im_Engadin/Segl)
