The Hlíðarfjall ski resort is a great spot where you can go skiing in the winter time. Together with 4 other ski resorts in a driving area you can use the same pass for all of them. www.skiiceland.is

Sightseeing

For tours of various kinds, I would highly recommend Saga Travel. They are simply worth it with knowledge staff and friendly attitude. I have taken several tours with them myself with foreign friends.
