"Claims of having found a ley line or an intersection of ley lines cannot be definitively disproven because ley lines lack empirical, measurable evidence and rely heavily on subjective interpretation. Archaeologists and statisticians have demonstrated that apparent alignments of ancient sites are statistically no more significant than random chance, given the high density of historic landmarks in many landscapes. This means that any straight line drawn across such regions is likely to “connect” several sites purely by coincidence.
Furthermore, ley lines are often selectively drawn to fit desired patterns, making it easy to create alignments that ignore contradictory data. While statistical analyses fail to support ley line claims and thus place the burden of proof on proponents, the absence of objective criteria means that disproving a specific claimed ley line is practically impossible; instead, the scientific consensus treats such claims as unsubstantiated and not supported by empirical reality."

Could ley lines be explained as surface magnetism?
"The map shows variations in Earth’s surface magnetism caused by varying concentrations of magnetic rocks and minerals in the Earth’s uppermost solid rock layer, known as the lithosphere. While magnetically charged objects exert a push or a pull simultaneously in many directions, the colors in this particular image represent only the
vertical component of Earth’s surface magnetism. If you imagine the Earth as a giant spherical pin cushion, the lines of the push and pull shown here are like pins radiating vertically outward from, or inward toward, the center of our planet.
The colors in this image represent the direction of magnetic pull. Positive values—shown as red and yellow—indicate magnetic push in the outward direction, and negative values—shown as green and blue—indicate locations with inward magnetic pull. White represents little or no magnetic force in either direction. The units provided here are in nanoTesla. A Tesla is a unit indicating the number of magnetic field lines per square meter. So a nanoTesla would be that same value, divided by one billion. To put that unit into perspective, a typical refrigerator magnet is about 200 times stronger than the strongest magnetic forces represented on this map."
