Mogote de Bagaces

Mogote de Bagaces, also known as Guayabo de Bagaces, is a district in Costa Rica, located 23 km north of Bagaces, at the foot of the Miravalles Volcano. The economic activity of Guayabo is based on agriculture (kidney beans, onions, and sugarcane), and on livestock and dairy industry. Thanks to the energy-producing potential of the Miravalles, the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) started a geothermal project in the region, which brought employment opportunities.

Located at 10.7167, -85.2333 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.
