Context
Should I worry?
Mt Fuji last erupted in 1707 (the Hoei eruption). It is monitored continuously by the Japan Meteorological Agency. Low magnitude tectonic and volcanic earthquakes are routine background activity.
For travel safety updates see the climbing page. JMA issues volcanic alert levels separately from earthquake activity.
