The main means of FTL travel in Star Trek is Warp Drive, which distorts space time around the ship forming a bubble around it. Anything within that bubble can move along at superluminal speeds. 

Roughly speaking by the late 2370s, Starfleet ships could keep up a pace of about 1,000 times the speed of light (given that it would take Voyager about 70 years to cross about 70,000 light years).

For STL travel, Impulse Drives are used. These work on a broadly similar principle to Warp Drive, but don't need Antimatter Reactors to work. In a Pinch they can work as a low-end Warp Drive.
