Cadiach grew up in Tarragona. At age 14 he became interested in mountain climbing and with 22 he was working as an instructor at the Escola Catalana d’Alta Muntanya (‚Catalan high mountains school‘).

In the 1980s he started to climb the eight-thousanders with the Nanga Parbat being the first summit to be reached in 1984. In 1985 he climbed the Mount Everest, where Cadiach managed to climb the technically difficult Second Step unaided for the first time. In 2013 he climbed his 13th eight-thousander, the Gasherbrum I.
