Karancsalja (Hungarian pronunciation: ) is a village in Nógrád county, Hungary, in Salgótarján District.

Karancsalja has probably been inhabited since the time of the Hungarian conquest, since its area – the northern side of the valley – is slightly raised from its surroundings, thus providing a suitable place for settlement.
