The Faak is the fifth largest lake in Carinthia, south of Villach and the Drava. The western shore is natural in many parts and overgrown reeds. The holiday resorts around the Faak are mostly attended by individual tourists and have a varied holiday tourist infrastructure with hotels, guest houses, inns, apartments and campsites. There are a number of restaurants and eateries, cafes, pubs and taverns.

Many different events take place including the ruins Finkenstein and probably the most frequented is the European Bike Week (former Harley Davidson convention) in the first week of September.

There are in addition to the bathing fun a huges sports variety: Surfing, Sailing, canoeing, rowing, electric and pedal boating (motorboats are forbidden) but also golfing, hiking, climbing Kanzianiberg, tennis, volleyball and cycling around the lake and in the mountains possible. The fish in the lake is possible all year round, but rather exercised in the off season. The "reinanke" is the main fish in Faak , but also, pike, catfish and carp are caught wild.
