Going down to Nashkel and doing the quest there is suitable for early game difficulty. One other reason to go to Nashkel as soon as possible is that you can meet some very good companions there.
In a subsequent re-play, when you know more about what awaits you in "off-route" areas, it'll be safer to choose your own route. However, since this is your first run (you lucky guy!), I recommend that you should make your way fairly directly towards Nashkel. There are a couple of "not far off-route" areas which can be quite profitable (and not excessively dangerous) to explore in the early stages of the game, so you might quite reasonably look around a little, but I don't advise going far off-route on a first run.
Just make sure when going to that area, avoid going north and dealing with creatures that are probably way beyond you being able to handle yet. Just talk to the NPC, have him join up with you, then leave to go back down south to Beregost/Nashkel. There's also another nice NPC to have for a good party just west of Beregost too, and getting him for similar reasons as the first NPC (having him for Nashkel, getting him early to develop his skills and hitpoints better) are a reason to fill your party up full before making the Nashkel Mines trip.
