How to work with Product Catalogs that have multiple levels

I'm having difficulty understanding how to go about setting up a catalog site with multiple levels in the hierarchy. For example, the standard walkthroughs will display product categories and products. When the product category page is viewed, it displays a list of products. That's fine.

I would like to have categories, sub-categories, and products. For example:

1. Bicycles
  a. Road Bikes
  b. Mountain Bikes
2. Clothing
  a. shirts
  b. shorts

The top level landing page should list all categories. Clicking on a category should take the user to a page that lists all sub-categories for that category. How are these landing pages created? It's simple to display the list of products in a sub-category, as that's just a content search. But how do I generate a list of subcategories (or categories) dynamically, without having to manually create a page for each one?

Also, each category / subcategory should have it's own metadata, such as description, contact info, etc.

Thanks,


Mike G.
