Europe Trip Leader

Liadh Ni Muircheartaigh

Growing up surrounded by Ireland's rich culture and natural beauty, and coming from generations of mountain guides (including her father, Con Moriarty, a longtime WT leader), it's no surprise that Liadh (pronounced "Leah") is a natural when it comes to introducing travelers to the country's wonders. Liadh has traveled and hiked around the world including in New Zealand and the Himalayas, and has lived in the French Alps and British Columbia. As a young woman who came of age as her nation celebrated 100 years of independence, she brings a rich and interesting perspective to Ireland and is passionate about sharing her love for its wild landscapes and vibrant culture.
