Libertarians can fall on a left-right spectrum the same as anybody. Hayekian liberals are generally monetarists (Austrian) that fall on the "right libertarian" spectrum. They tend to favor a state of a similar size and purpose as many Objectivists. Enforce rule of law, property rights, national defense - little else.
Some fans of Austrian economics will go further, sometimes all the way into anarcho-capitalism.
Other sorts of libertarians might be left-libertarian, anarchists, marxists, distributist, geo-libertarian, all sorts.
