Cader Idris Outdoor Gear first opened in 1990 and quickly established itself as "the" Outdoor shop in the area.


The shop came under new ownership in early 2003 and continued to evolve to meet the demands of outdoor enthusiasts in the area. New ownership meant new brands whilst continuing with popular brands from the past.

Dolgellau is placed between 3 mountain areas, Cader Idris, the Harlech Dome and the Aran. Whilst Cader is the main draw to the area there are many attractions for those that enjoy the outdoors.

Whether its rambling, climbing, camping or just enjoying the outdoors then Cader Idris Outdoor gear has something for you. With over 60 different styles of walking boots and shoes, a variety of waterproofs to suit any budget, clothing for walking, traveling or living and all sorts of other goodies for the outdoors, Cader Idris Outdoor Gear is the place for you!
