This 19,000 square foot store, in the retail park on Caernarfon Road, stocks a variety of unbeatable brands, such as Rab, OEX and Berghaus, as well as trusted brands like Eurohike, HiGear and Freedom Trail.

With new fixtures, fittings and signage, the new store will have a bright, clean and modern feel to it with the new GO Outdoors branding.

Opening for business today, the store will celebrate its new St. David’s Park location by offering all customers up to 60 per cent off everything from January 11 until February 21 while shopping in store.
