    Let \(\Gamma\) be a locally compact amalgam of compact groups. The action of \(\Gamma\) on a suitable tree is used to study all random walks on \(\Gamma\) which can be described as nearest neighbour random walks on the tree. In particular, local limit theorems are derived, i.e. the asymptotic behaviour of n-step transition probabilities is determined.
