Roberts visited Ronda on his way from Malaga to Gibraltar. In a letter to his friend David Ramsay Hay, written from Gibraltar on 22nd April 1833 (National Library of Scotland), he mentioned 'a very interesting journey I had from Malaga across the Mountains of Ronda, the situation of which Mountain town is one of the Most extraordinary of Spain if not in the world'.
