We study intersection properties of multi-dimensional random walks. Let X and Y be two independent random walks with values in \({\mathbb{Z}}^ d\) (d\(\leq 3)\), satisfying suitable moment assumptions, and let \(I_ n\) denote the number of common points to the paths of X and Y up to time n. The sequence \((I_ n)\), suitably normalized, is shown to converge in distribution towards the ''intersection local time'' of two independent Brownian motions. Results are applied to the proof of a central limit theorem for the range of a two-dimensional recurrent random walk, thus answering a question raised by \textit{N. C. Jain} and \textit{W. E. Pruitt} [Proc. 6th Berkeley Sympos. math. Statist. Probab., Univ. Calif. 1970, 3, 31-50 (1972; Zbl 0276.60066)].
