The Bachtel Tower is a 75-metre steel observation and transmitting tower on the summit of the Bachtel mountain in the Zürcher Oberland region of the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland. Built in 1986, it has an observation platform 30 metres above ground offering views from Lake Zurich to the Black Forest in good weather. It replaced an earlier steel observation tower from 1893, which was later re-erected on the Pfannenstiel.
